From candy.schwartz at simmons.edu Mon Jun 12 11:04:41 2006 From: candy.schwartz at simmons.edu (Candy Schwartz) Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2006 11:04:41 -0400 Subject: [Studentchapadv] ASIS&T Stuff Message-ID: <000901c68e31$8865ea40$fd998c86@ad.simmons.edu> Hi all - For a variety of reasons, I am running very late in sending out this reminder about your student chapter's annual report. Although the deadline is past, in fact the person in charge of looking at these is me, so I am just going to ask you to have your reports in by July 1st. You can find more information on the report at http://www.asis.org/awards/studentchapteroftheyear.html. Also, you can get membership lists for your chapter from ASIST headquarters - contact Vanessa Foss, Membership Services Manager, vfoss at asis.org Please submit your report electronically, at http://www.softconf.com/asist/StudChapYear/submit.html The report also serves as the chapter's nomination for student chapter of the year, but please don't let that stop you from filing a report. Failing all else, just throw a Word document into the submission area, letting me know what you have been doing for the past year. I have spent some time trying to revise the list of advisors. If you are not the current advisor, could you please pass this on to the current advisor, and let me know who that is. If your chapter doesn't have an advisor, please also let me know. Please also take the time to review the information at http://www.asis.org/Chapters/chapters-student.html for accuracy. I have just now sent a list of updates to ASIST, but they might take a while, so there are some known errors - for example, if you got this message, then your name will appear as the advisor once the updates have been made, even if it is not there now. One thing I can tell you is that the links to "School" will go to the school and not to the university, once the updates have been made. We will have an advisors' meeting at the annual conference in Austin, and students are more than welcome. There will also be a party for students only - announcements will be sent to student members shortly before the meeting. Finally, I expect there to be some interesting changes in ASIST services to students prior to the annual conference. We are trying to find methods to encourage student participation and activity in a variety of ways, not just through student chapters. Thanks, and stay tuned, Candy ------------------- Candy Schwartz Library & Information Science, Simmons College 300 The Fenway, Boston, MA 02115-5898, USA Skype: candyschwartz candy.schwartz at simmons.edu http://web.simmons.edu/~schwartz/ From candy.schwartz at simmons.edu Mon Jun 12 12:24:21 2006 From: candy.schwartz at simmons.edu (Candy Schwartz) Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2006 12:24:21 -0400 Subject: [Studentchapadv] Minutes Message-ID: <000001c68e3c$a9967670$fd998c86@ad.simmons.edu> Hi again - There were some problems with the minutes when I sent them out atthe end of last year.
