Continuing Education Committee

Charge
The NASIG Continuing Education Committee is charged with providing serials education opportunities to its membership as well as the serials community as a whole. In this regard, the committee will develop high quality programs that can be offered on a regional basis to members and potential members in all parts of North America. The content of these programs will be diverse in order to reach as many segments of the serials community as possible, and will include a range of topics, including general and specific as well as theoretical and practical aspects of serials work. The committee works with the Program Planning Committee, the Electronic Communications Committee, Regional Councils & Membership Committee, and Professional Liaisons to identify programs and other activities, areas of interest, sites and speakers that would be suitable for programs, joint conferences, occasional publication, and electronic forums. The committee establishes links with library and information science and academic publishing programs to cooperate on serials education programs and identify potential speakers from outside NASIG for programs and events. The committee also provides information to the Evaluation & Assessment Committee. You may contact the Continuing Education Committee by email at: cont-educ@nasig.org.
