RUSA 101 @ ALA Annual 2011 (New Orleans)

We did not schedule a formal 101 at Annual because of the no-conflict times on Friday after 4, the RUSA President’s Program on Sat from 4-5:30p and the section socials on Saturday night. MARS has their all-committee meeting on Sunday at 8a and that’s also when Literary Tastes Breakfast is, and RSS has their all-committee meeting on Saturday at 8a.

Online DocSection Level Welcome Email New Members Template

The following template was developed by the members of the RUSA Membership Committee, 2009-10. It is a template that can be adapted by all sections within RUSA to reach out to new members. Sections can take as little or as much from this template as desired, but all sections should contact new members monthly. The RUSA Marketing Specialist (Liz Markel) will send out lists of new section members.
