TS Business Meeting!

Hello all,

Please find below the agenda for the TS-SIS 2007 annual business meeting to be held Sunday, July 15th, 5:30-6:45 pm in the Hilton-Grand Salon, rooms 9-12, New Orleans, Louisiana.

As you know this year we are voting on a bylaw change to the Preservation Standing Committee, and our chairs and committees and liaisons will be making brief reports on their activities. The Renee D. Chapman award--always a highlight--will be presented to this year’s worthy and accomplished recipient, Mary Jane Kelsey, Associate Law Librarian for Technical Services, Yale Law School, Lillian Goldman Library.

Thank you all again for the wonderful opportunity to lead our Section this past year. You are great colleagues, and it has been an honor and a personal privilege to serve as your chair.

--Rhonda
