Dear IAMSLIC Members -

The IAMSLIC Executive Board is seeking a volunteer from our membership to serve as the next chair of the Website & Communications Committee.   This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is tech savvy and would like to become more involved with our organization.  IAMSLIC uses the Wild Apricot platform, which is very user friendly (even for first time users) and provides a wonderful collection of support documentation and help pages.  The chair would lead the committee for the next two years (2020-2022), with the option to serve a second two year term, and be invited to attend the monthly IAMSLIC Executive Board Meetings in this role.  The committee charge is as follows, and is supported by various long standing committee members as well as the chair: 

• Maintain the open-source content management software (Wild Apricot) for managing the website.
• Train IAMSLIC officers, committee chairs and members to maintain content areas of the website as appropriate. Coordinate content management responsibilities with the junior President-Elect.
• Assist the Conference Committee with the creation of a sub-site within Wild Apricot to serve as the Annual Conference website.
• Assist any Committee or Regional Group that would like to create web pages for the IAMSLIC site that are specific to their activities (e.g. AFRIAMSLIC).
• Maintain the IAMSLIC blog and assist members with posting news if necessary.
• Coordinate the submission of conference proceedings and presentation files into the WHOAS repository hosted by MBLWHOI Library.
• Maintain and monitor the IAMSLIC listserv.
• Publish the annual conference proceedings.
