    Looking to participate in discussions on authority control and identity management? Are you interested in running programs or providing Programming input? The LITA/ALCTS Authority Control Interest Group is looking for several individuals to sit in our governing board. This board plans ACIG programs at Midwinter and Annual (you are not required to attend either of these meetings to participate).


    ACIG is also looking for a Vice-Chair/Chair-Elect and a Secretary. These two positions along with the Chair and Past-Chair coordinate and oversee the activities for the interest group.


    If you are interested in any of these positions, stay for the business meeting following our ALA Annual program in San Francisco. If you are not able to attend Annual or have any questions, please send me an email (nbputnam@umd.edu).


    Sunday, June 28
    1:00-3:30 (business meeting to follow)
    Room 124 (N) in the Moscone Convention Center
