ACQflash: NASIG Continuing Education Committee

NASIG Continuing Education Committee

 Are you planning a conference, workshop, or training session related to serials?  Is there a need for serials education in your part of the country but no conference or workshop is being held nearby?  The NASIG Continuing Education Committee would like to help you with:

ideas for programs
speakers in your region

 The CEC is charged to provide high quality programs that can be offered on a regional basis to NASIG members and potential members in all parts of North America.  The content of these programs will be diverse in order to reach as many segments of the serials community as possible. It will include a range of general and specific topics as well as theoretical and practical aspects of serials work.  In this ever-more digital and networked environment, we are particularly interested in encouraging emerging areas of electronic resources.

 In addition to suggesting program ideas and speakers, the NASIG CEC welcomes co-sponsorship proposals from other groups for programs that are within scope and provide funding opportunities.

 If you have an idea for a program proposal, please forward the following information to the CEC:

topic of your program or workshop
objectives of the program or workshop
description of the program or workshop
intended audience
location(s) of your program (physical or virtual)
speaker(s)
date (month or season)
duration of the program or workshop
local coordinator(s) of the program
preliminary budget request (including costs and anticipated revenue)

Or if you need help with program ideas please contact the NASIG Continuing Education Committee co-chairs Valerie Bross (vbross@library.ucla.edu) or Jayne Sappington (jayne.sappington@ttu.edu).

Thank you in advance for your assistance.  We look forward to hearing from you!
