Dear Colleagues.

As our Country is approaching the day of the next Presidential election our chapter is feverishly preparing for its next business meeting. Both events will take place on November 6. It is our civil duties to both vote and be active community members.  So on that day please vote and also attend our next meeting at the Delancey Street Foundation. Our  NCNMLG members’ expectations are heightened as this is a very special meeting because the guest of honor will be none other than  Jane Blumenthal, 2012-2013 MLA President.  Jane’s reputation is that she is a dynamic personable speaker, therefore we looking forward to an hour of lively interactive discussion with her.

Dear Colleagues,

I can hardly imagine a more exciting and opportunity-filled position than to be the member of Northern California & Nevada Medical Library Group and to serve as its elected president.  Our chapter has a long history that brings us the responsibility to cultivate and grow our professional success.  This year we are celebrating the 65^th anniversary of NCNMLG’s establishment.  My aim in working with you closely is to thrive on being a learning organization. There will be several learning opportunities presented through the year and I hope that we can participate and benefit from them. I am proud to share with you that our members have made them possible either by teaching the course or hosting it at their university location. Notably, one option is the “Facebook and Social Media” webinar on September 19 and the “Information Treasure Hunt: Supporting Evidence-Based Practice @ Your Institution,” on November 30. Some other upcoming learning option is the “Internet Librarian conference and its companion training Internet@SchoolsTrack” on October 22-24 where our members can benefit a substantial discount.

Hope to see you there!

Judith Weiner Mills,  NCNMLG President
