Hello!
The Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL) Image Resources Interest Group (IRIG) is seeking an Incoming Convener for July 1, 2022 - June 30, 2023.
IRIG positions are dynamic and flexible, and offer involvement with ACRL via collaborative and creative work and leadership. Membership in ACRL is required for this position for the duration of its term. The Incoming Convener will work with the Convener to:
- develop event programming and project plans
- conceptualize and pursue IRIG initiatives and activities in support of member interests and ACRL's strategic plan
- communicate with members, ACRL sections and leadership, and outside organizations
- develop IRIG membership
There is a virtual orientation for new interest group leaders planned for in the Spring, and the new Incoming Convener will assume their responsibilities on July 1, 2022. After a year as Incoming Convener, that individual steps into the role of Convener for 2023-2024.
Please contact Sarah Huber huber47@purdue.edu with questions, and to express your interest in volunteering for the position of IRIG Incoming Convener 2022-2023 by May 16. Please put "IRIG Incoming Convener" in the subject line of your email and include some information about your interest in images in academic libraries, any previous involvement with IRIG, and your experience with committee/collaborative work (especially in virtual environments!). Thank you very much for considering this opportunity. I look forward to hearing from you. We'll have a fun year working together!
