Hello Everyone - Believe it or not it is time to think about site selection for the 2012 conference!!
I have volunteered to co-Chair the 2012 site selection committee. Ben Hyman (BC Sitka) has offered to co-Chair the committee with me. We both come with experience from the last round and enthusiasm to get the ball rolling for 2012. I include here a link to the process document that the last committee worked out. It should give you an idea of the task ahead. In a nutshell, the committee will put out a call for proposals and then do some evaluation based on requirements, desirable qualities and hosting repsonsibilites listed in the process document. http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=eg09:conference_nominations Feel free to respond to this note with questions that you think might help anyone interested in volunteering for this committee, otherwise email me and Ben offlist, just don't want to clutter up the mailing list too much. Cynthia Williamson: <crwbookg...@gmailcom> Ben Hyman: <ben.hy...@gov.bc.ca> I will keep everyone up to date as the process goes along. We're still working out timelines, so I'm not sure exactly how long things will take but I'm hoping to get this done fairly quickly. Hint, hint, those of you thinking about making a bid - start your engines!! We're hoping to have 6 or 8 folks at most on the committee, we'd like some representation across the EG community, otherwise we'll take things on first come first served basis, please volunteer by Friday, May 14th at midnight if you're interested in helping out.
