From fidelia.ibekwe-sanjuan at univ-amu.fr Sat Dec 6 17:20:57 2014 From: fidelia.ibekwe-sanjuan at univ-amu.fr (IBEKWE-SANJUAN Fidelia) Date: Sat, 06 Dec 2014 23:20:57 +0100 Subject: [Sighfis-l] ASIST History Fund Appeal Message-ID: <54838149.2030709@univ-amu.fr> Dear Friends of ASIST: Please consider donating to the ASIST History Fund this year. We need your support for some significant projects related to preserving and researching the history of our field. ASIST is a 501-c3 organization and this means that your contributions are tax deductible. Read on for more information about the fund and how you can contribute. The ASIST board established the History Fund in 2000 for the purpose of encouraging and supporting research and publication in the history of Information Science and Technology. Each year the fund is used in support of various historical projects and research work including History Fund Award, the History Fund best paper award. More information on the two awards can be found here http://www.asis.org/awards/history_fund_awards.html and details of former recipients can be found at http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGHFIS/activities/. While the History Fund is in the black, it is simply insufficient to support the kinds of historical research projects that are truly needed, such as the preservation and access to ASIST historical resources, encouraging and supporting new research in the history of Information Science. Your donation will help us to begin to sponsor these and other large projects. How can you help? You can donate in a variety of ways including dedicating book royalties, committing to challenges, providing matching funds, and through individual contributions. Donate today by sending your contribution to the fund: ASIST History Fund Attention: Richard Hill 1320 Fenwick Lane, Suite 510 Silver Spring, MD 20910 Please indicate in your correspondence that the donation is intended for the ASIST History Fund. Dick will send you an acknowledgement for your tax records. If you have questions about the History Fund please send a note to me at the address below. Oversight of the History Fund is the function of the History Fund Board of Advisors. Currently these are: Michael Buckland, Samantha Hastings, Trudi Bellardo Hahn, Kathryn La Barre, Fidelia Ibekwe-SanJuan (Chair), and Ken Herold. -- ----------------------------------------------------- Fidelia Ibekwe-SanJuan (Ph.D.) Full Professor (Professeur des Universit?s) School of Journalism & Communication (EJCAM) Aix-Marseille University - France.
