Message-ID: Remember those tiny (1x1) stickers your SIG has distributed at ASIST in the past, the ones people put on their conference badges? I'm happy so say that this program is alive again! Those of you with brand new logos can put them to good use in promoting your SIG. What will this cost? Stickers are provided at no cost to your SIG How do I order? No order need be placed. Follow these instructions: [1] Go to the ASIST website: http://www.asis.org/SIG/sigs.html [2] Locate your SIG and go to your SIGs landing page (example AH's landing page is http://www.asis.org/SIG/ah.html) [3] Is there a link to your SIG's website? If there isn't please send the URL to Jan so she can update your page. [4] The logo on your website will be used for the sticker. On October 10th Jan will collect whatever logo your SIG uses on your webpage and will use that image for the stickers she will make. If your webpage does not contain your logo - make sure it does by midnight on October 9th! If you don't have a webpage but you do have a logo - contact me at klabarre at illinois.edu All SIGs will receive stickers at ASIST-AM (even if you ignore this email). Questions? contact me off list. I already have SIG KM's logo. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

A few other notes ~ ? SIS/CR on the web: Folks may be aware that SIG/CR now has a Wordpress page @: http://sigcr.wordpress.com/. With the exception of the 'message from the Cabinet' from March, all other news is in reverse chronological order, keeping folks up-to-date. Thank you to Melissa Adler and Emma Tonkin for their work + talent in launching this site. ? SIG/CR logo: We are still finessing a logo that appears there, so don't panic (it includes a platypus... per previous discussion. Look for magnets at this year's ASIST). ? SIG/CR Business Meeting + SIG/CR workshop/Big Data, Linked Data: Classification Research at the Junction: @ ASIST/Montreal: Business meeting, see: http://sigcr.wordpress.com/2013/08/22/sig-cr-business-meeting-at-asist/). Last year was pretty wild; and, unfortunately, devastating for some, given Storm Sandy. Looking forward to SIG/CR folks gathering in Montreal at the workshop (http://sigcr.wordpress.com/2013/05/31/sig-cr-workshop-2013-at-asist-am-montreal-canada/), and via other ASIST forums.
