[Sig-l] Copyright for logo contest for SIG-STI

[Kathryn La Barre]

Greetings Moriana - so far as I know ASIST has a hands off policy with
regard to the SIG logo process - so there isn't a form. Asking other SIGs
how they have handled this is a great idea!! Good luck. Make sure you have
budgeted the amount for the award. This will be a FY13 expense [current
year] if the award would be disbursed by September 30, 2013. Good luck and
have fun!
