    Hello,

    I am a member of the Core Interest Groups Coordinating Committee.  We are working to identify the current chairs for all IG Groups and we don't have a chair listed for the Promoting Preservation IG. Will you current chair please email me (dennis.smith@mail.wvu.edu) or complete the May 2023 report https://alacore.org/handbook/interest-groups/report-form/ showing the new chair's name?

    Thanks,
