[Libs-Or] Answerland Advisory Board Recruiting New Members

[smeadlurks at comcast.net]

Hello, 


Answerland (formerly L-Net) is Oregon's statewide reference service that allows everyone who lives, works and goes to school in Oregon the chance to connect with a librarian by live chat, email or text messaging. Answerland also encourages every library to provide virtual reference services to their community. 


The Answerland Advisory Board is seeking new members for a two year term, starting in Spring/Summer 2014 . 


The role of the Answerland Advisory Board is to set the mission, goals, and direction of Answerland, our statewide digital reference service. If you think we are doing something right, or if you think we are doing something wrong, we want to hear from you. The board strives for broad representation geographically and by type and size of library. Advisors can come from any Oregon library or related organization and have included library directors, volunteers and every role in a library in between. 


More information about the advisory board can be found at: 

http://www.answerland.org/ advisory-board 


Meetings are four times a year, at least one in-person, and travel costs can often be reimbursed. 


If you are interested in serving on the Answerland Advisory Board, send an email by January 14, 2014 to: Sarah Mead at sarahsm at multco.us 


Please describe in about 300 words why you want to be a member of the Answerland Advisory Board. The current board will review applications and decide on new membership at our January meeting.
