From Heting.Chu at liu.edu Thu Mar 18 15:42:48 2004 From: Heting.Chu at liu.edu (Heting Chu) Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2004 15:42:48 -0500 Subject: [Studentchapadv] ASIST Student Chapter-of-the-Year Award - Call for Nominations Message-ID: <96E2560B0F8A0F48B22BFFA7A72397E4020286D2@cwp-m1.liunet.edu> Dear Advisor, Please remind your ASIST student chapter officers that their annual report, which can also serve as self-nomination for the Student Chapter-of-the-Year award, should be submitted to the headquarters by Monday, May 31, 2004 either electronically or by postal mail. A webpage has been set up at http://www.softconf.com/asist/StudChapYr04/submit.html for your chapter to submit your report/nomination electronically. Guidelines and nomination/report form (aka Criteria & Checklist) are hyperlinked from the submission page. Please note that since a conference management application is used to set up this page, some of the wording (e.g., Call for Papers at http://www.softconf.com/asist/StudChapYr04/) cannot be tailored to accurately reflect the nature of your submission. Please also note that 15 points are assigned to the Financial criterion in the award nomination form due to a hangover from Chapter of Year criteria. But, we understand that student chapters do not do budgets the same way that professional chapters do. So your chapter perhaps can present your fundraising or other similar activities in this section of your submission. Thank you very much for your help. Look forward to receiving the annual report from your student chapter. Sincerely, Heting Chu Student Chapter Representativ From rhill at asis.org Thu Mar 18 15:52:58 2004 From: rhill at asis.org (Richard Hill) Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2004 15:52:58 -0500 Subject: [Studentchapadv] ] ASIST Student Chapter-of-the-Year Award - Call for Nominations AND Pratt Severn In-Reply-To: <96E2560B0F8A0F48B22BFFA7A72397E4020286D2@cwp-m1.liunet.edu> Message-ID: <20040318214650.6D1D9292CB9@mail.asis.org> A couple of notes to all (I didn't know Heting was going to announce so quickly, but that is not a problem if you can ignore some housekeeping. First, we are just starting on implementing the electronic submission. What Heting says is correct, but some changes will be made later this week (or early next) that will make all clearer. For example, where it now asks for "Title" it will (when revised) ask for "Nominee." Where it now asks for "Author" it will ask for "Nominator." Where it now says "Call for Papers," it will say "Call for Nominations." Similar changes will also be made elsewhere And we very much want ALL submissions electronically. This facilitates everything and gives us an archive of the reports. Similarly we are taking as many of the awards as possible to electronic submission -- and that includes the PRATT SEVERN AWARD. Make sure your Masters' students know about this. The award shall consist of round-trip travel expenses and full registration for the ASIS annual meeting, not to exceed $500, to be paid by Pratt Institute; a certificate; and possible submission of the paper for publication in the Journal of the American Society for Information Science (JASIS). If runners-up are designated, they will receive letters of "honorable mention," signed by the ASIS President, but shall not share in the award. Travel reimbursements will be made 4-6 weeks after receipts are submitted to HQ. The purpose of this award is to encourage student research and writing in the field of information science. Any student in a Masters degree-granting institution can submit a paper. Doctoral theses are not eligible. Papers submitted must fall into the scope of JASIS and must be endorsed by a faculty sponsor for submission to the contest. Papers submitted should be original manuscripts (not previously published) and should not be submitted to other publications or groups while they are being considered by the Jury. The Best Student Research Award is sponsored by the Society-at-Large and is administered the Information Science Education Committee. Nominations should be in the system by June 15. In summary, the nominations package should include: (a) A cover letter, stating . the author's name, address, and academic affiliation; and . that the attached paper is being submitted for the Best Student Research Award; (b) The paper, carrying no author identification; and (c) No more than two letters of endorsement from faculty sponsors.

But I'll point out the housekeeping differences on the pages for electronic submissions when I send out a reminder for the award in early May. I'll also ask all the chapters to submit their reports/nominations electronically without giving them the postal mail option for submission. Thanks for the information about the Pratt Severn award. I'll post it to our list for master's students at Palmer School.
