Everyone else, please send yours in asap. It's also time to send out suggestions for nominations to be an officer in your SIG for next year. We need to know at least the name of the new chair and chair-elect by the end of the annual conference. One, last thing. I've heard from a few of you, but could each SIG let me know who will be in person at the annual SIG business meeting in Copenhagen and who will need their representative to call in. I need to get an idea of what kind of call in option I need depending on how many of you will be choosing that option. I hope you're all doing well and I hope to see many of you in Copenhagen next month! Kris ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kristene Unsworth, PhD.

I?ve already been collecting and sending in the SIG officers who will be attending. If you haven?t had time to send your representative?s name to me, then just post it yourself at the link below and send me the name as well. (We?re trying to touch base once we?re in Copenhagen to be sure everyone?s all set.) Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, Lynn Lynn Westbrook, Associate Professor School of Information University of Texas @ Austin 1-512-232-7831 lynnwest at ischool.utexas.edu We are asking each Special Interest Group to: 1. Review and edit their one-page PowerPoint slide that he have from last year, summarizing/highlighting their SIG. Please click on this link to edit your slide. The slides will run in the background, and will also be printed as part of the packet given out to new attendees. We ask that you edit your slide if possible by 9/30. 2. We are inviting one officer from each SIG to attend this program. Could you please click on this link and enter the name and email addresses of your representative by 9/30 as well. We will take this entry as a confirmation of your having reviewed/edited your slide.
