A Message from the President:
As IACRL President, I am, looking forward to the possibilities that a new year can bring for this organization.
Whether you have been active in IACRL for years or are joining us for the first time, I hope that you will find a way to get involved in our activities. One of the advantages of being a member of a professional organization is the networking and sharing of knowledge. Illinois academic librarians have a long history of innovation and leading the way in delivering technology and services to our users. It is my hope that we can draw on these experiences and share ideas that help strengthen IACRL and energize not only the organization but librarianship across the state.
A few activities are already in the works, including the IACRL luncheon at the Illinois Library Association Conference (featuring Dr. Howard Rosenbaum of Indiana University, who will be speaking on how academic librarians are responding to Web 2.0). The conference planning committee has also begun working on the Spring 2008 conference. The theme, "Librarians as Leaders: Energizing our Communities" will provide a forum for sharing the wonderful programs and services that each of us have implemented on our campuses.
If you have any ideas on
how to improve IACRL, would like to volunteer to serve on a committee or
help in any way, please contact me. I look forward to working with all of
you to help energize our organization.
Jocelyn Tipton
