[SOA] Become a SCAig Co-Chair! Call for nominations

[Zeller, Joshua [Library Services]]

Dear all,


The ALAO Special Collections and Archives Interest Group (SCAIG) is currently seeking an enthusiastic and committed member to serve as co-chair!


Beginning in July 2021, the new co-chair will work with current co-chair, Josh Zeller, to promote archives and special collections, as well as develop new professional development opportunities for fellow members of this community. The term is for 2 years, staggered with the other co-chair term, and runs July-June. Nominees may be self-nominated, and must be a member of both ALAO and SCAIG.


Please send expressions of interest to the current co-chairs, Henry Handley (hhandley1 at udayton.edu) and Josh Zeller (Joshua.Zeller at msj.edu<mailto:Joshua.Zeller at msj.edu>) by Friday, April 22.


Duties of co-chairs include:

*         Programming the annual SCAIG workshop/conference with a planning committee

*         Attending the annual ALAO board retreat/training in Columbus and quarterly virtual meetings with fellow IG chairs and the ALAO IG coordinator

*         Attending the ALAO annual meeting to engage with interest group members

*         Submitting quarterly reports to the board

*         Submitting updates to the ALAO Newsletter

*         Updating SCAIG's web page

*         Managing the SCAIG Google Group list

With the planned return of the annual ALAO conference to an in-person venue, there are potential opportunities to contribute and engage special collections and archives colleagues.

About SCAIG

The purpose of the Special Collections and Archives Interest Group is to provide a vehicle with which to discuss and disseminate issues and developments pertinent to special collections and archives in Ohio academic libraries.


If you are considering nominating yourself or a colleague and have questions, please contact us (Henry and Josh). We're both happy to discuss the expectations of co-chairs, time commitments, and personal experiences. This is a wonderful opportunity for anyone who is looking for a chance to get more involved within the special collections/archives community, and the broader community of academic librarians.


Thanks for your consideration!


Sincerely,


Henry Handley and Josh Zeller
