DVC Call for Board Nominations

Dear DVC Community,

After an engaging and generative Spring Program, I am so happy to reach out to you all to begin the election cycle for future leadership of the ACRL DVC chapter. 

This past year has seen a return to in person programming, a strengthening of community engagement in support of our values, and the continuation of our guiding questions framework. There is still much to do as we enrich our local academic library community and we need new voices and ideas to make that work a reality. This year, we have openings for following positions:

Vice-President/President Elect

Archivist

Webmaster 

To place your name on the ballot or nominate someone else, please email me at maisha@udel.edu by Wednesday May 31, 2023. Visit our website for more information, including position descriptions. You are also welcome to reach out with questions. 

Cheers

Maisha Carey

Past President, ACRL DVC

Deputy University Librarian and Director of Organizational Learning, University of Delaware

A New Way to Participate : Join the Community Liaison Committee

Are you interested in expanding your network and facilitating collaborations to expand professional development opportunities for librarians in our area? Please consider volunteering for a new committee of the Delaware Valley Chapter of ACRL, the Community Liaison Committee. 

This committee is tasked with connecting our chapter to various other community and professional organizations including ACRL national, ACRL NY, ACRL MD, ALA, PaLa, PLA, ACR, REFORMA Northeast Chapter, and local librarian unions.

Committee Chair Jess Denke is looking for individuals who are creative and thoughtful to help make these connections and support the development of the chapter. The committee will begin by holding meetings once a month, but this is subject to change as the committee sets their own expectations and timeline.

Please email jessicadenke@muhlenberg.edu with any questions, concerns, or to volunteer!
