Subject: Call for Nominations to the NDSA
Coordinating Committee
Dear NDSA
Stewards,
NDSA
will be electing three members to its Coordinating
Committee (CC) this year, with
terms starting in January 2022. CC members serve a three
year term, participate in a monthly call, and meet at the
annual Digital
Preservation Conference. The Coordinating
Committee provides strategic leadership to the organization
in coordination with group co-chairs. NDSA is a diverse
community with a critical mission, and we seek candidates to
join the CC that bring a variety of cultures and
orientations, skills, perspectives and experiences, to bear
on leadership initiatives. Working on the CC is an
opportunity to contribute your leadership for the community
as a whole, while collaborating with a wonderful group of
dynamic and motivated professionals.
If
you are interested in joining the NDSA Coordinating
Committee (CC) or want to nominate another member, please
complete the nomination form by 11:59pm EDT
Friday, August 13, 2021, which asks for the name,
e-mail address, brief bio/candidate statement
(nominee-approved), and NDSA-affiliated institution of the
nominee. We particularly encourage and welcome nominations
of people from underrepresented groups and sectors.
As
members of the NDSA, we join together to form a consortium
of more than 260 partnering organizations, including
businesses, government agencies, nonprofit organizations,
professional associations and universities, all engaged in
the long-term preservation of digital information. Committed
to preserving access to our national digital heritage, we
each offer our diverse skills, perspectives, experiences,
cultures and orientations to achieve what we could not do
alone.
The
CC is dedicated to ensuring a strategic direction for NDSA,
to the advancement of NDSA activities to achieve community
goals, and to further communication among digital
preservation professionals and NDSA member organizations.
The CC is responsible for reviewing and approving NDSA
membership applications and publications; updating
eligibility standards for membership in the alliance, and
other strategic documents; engaging with stakeholders in the
community; and working to enroll new members committed to
our core mission. More information about the duties and
responsibilities of CC members can be found at the NDSA’s Leadership
Page.
We
hope you will give this opportunity serious consideration
and we value your continued contributions and leadership in
our community.
Any
questions can be directed to [log in to unmask].
Thank you,
Nathan Tallman,
Vice Chair
On behalf of the
NDSA Coordinating Committee
