Here's your chance to help provide continuing education on 
Continuing  Resources!  The ALCTS Continuing Resources Section 
College & Research  Libraries Interest Group seeks a new 
Chair-Elect to serve starting  after ALA Annual 2010.  The new 
Chair-Elect will help to solicit and  plan sessions for the 
semiannual ALA conferences, and he or she will  also attend these 
sessions at the conferences.  This position serves  as 
Chair-Elect for the first year of the term and Chair the second 
year.  This interest group is a lot of fun to lead and relatively 
low  maintenance.
Please contact me (rkemp<at>email.unc.edu) or Beth
(Beth_Bernhardt<at>uncg.edu) if you have any questions about 
becoming  a leader.   Please send in nominations for this 
position to Rebecca at  (rkemp<at>email.unc.edu) by April 30th. 
Please feel free to forward  this call to others at your
