SIG-STI

Greetings, SIG-STI Members!

We now have a complete slate of officers for 2020-21:

Chair: Steve Hardin
Chair-Elect: Yi Bu,
Communications Officer: Yuehua Zhao
Past Chair: Chao Min
Secretary/Treasurer: Alicia Takoka

Now that we have a full slate of officers, let's consider ideas for panels or presentations at next year's Annual Meeting.  The theme is "Information: Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Justice, and Relevance."  Scientific and technical information, of course, provides abundant possibilities for presentations along this theme.  Have an idea?  Please let us know! After all, this can be a great publication opportunity for you!

Same goes for webinars about scientific and technical information.  If you have some ideas for topics you'd like covered, or you'd like to be involved with the planning, again, just let us know! ASIS&T Headquarters has made it very easy to set up webinars.

You can respond to this discussion thread or email me directly at steve.hardin@indstate.edu. And of course you can just use iConnect to start a different discussion too.

This year will, I hope, be both educational and fun for SIG-STI!
