October 12 UASLA Meeting Minutes



 Fundraising

UASLA will hold its first Fall 2011 fundraiser during the SIRLS Homecoming Event Reception on Thursday, November 3, 2011.So come on out and be generous!

Funds will be used for future events such as the special library project below.

Community Service

SLA members volunteered at the Tucson BioBlitz last Friday, October 20, 2011.

Currently, we are beginning work on a video/audio history project of special librarians in Tucson in collaboration with SIRLS.  Project goals include:
  •     awareness and promotion of local librarians/special libraries
  •     recording histories of local Library and Information Science professionals and SIRLS alums
We hope to turn some of the interviews into group tour events at different libraries around town.  Interested in attending an upcoming library tour or learning more about local special libraries/librarians?  Let UASLA know!

Volunteer Opportunity
The Tucson Teen Crisis Center is looking for a volunteer to put together a small (less than 100) print book collection.  Interested?  Contact Bryan Heidorn. 

The next meeting, scheduled for Wednesday, October 26, 2011, has been postponed.  The new meeting date will be posted when it is announced.

28 September 2011 Meeting Minutes

The second UA SLA meeting of the Fall 2011 Semester took place on Wednesday, September 28, 2011. The meeting began at 6:05 pm and ended at 7:00.

Fundraisers

Planning is underway for our first fundraising event: selling souvenir photos during Homecoming weekend, November 3-5, 2011.
UA SLA is also looking into hosting a Bingo night at Bumsteds after the success of the event last year. Dates are still TBD.

Semester Service Project

To learn about and be involved in the Tucson community,UA SLA members will undertake a service project each semester. For Fall 2011 the project will be working at the BioBlitz on October 21. The event still needs volunteers. Some SLA members have conflicts with the 21 October date; after-event LIS-related volunteer opportunities may be available. Interested? Contact the UA SLA Chapter for more information.

Events and Activities

The UA SLA student chapter is currently working on some fun and ambitious projects, including more community service and a movie/speaker night. More details will be provided as the projects take shape. Interested? Not interested? Voice your opinions, take part some fun projects, and help shape UA’s SLA chapter at our next meeting: Wednesday, October 12 6pm in the SIRLS multipurpose room.
