Contributions to UPLSAA Newsletter

The newly elected officers of the UP Library Science Alumni Association (UPLSAA) would be releasing an online version of the UPLSAA Newsletter this November. In connection with this, they are inviting all alumni of the School of Library and Information Studies (SLIS) formerly known as the Institute of Library and Information Science (ILIS) and originally called Institute of Library Science (ILS) , to contribute any personal or professional article to be included in the issue they are preparing. Deadline for submission of articles is on November 18, 2007. Please see complete transcript of the information disseminated via email below.
Subject: [uplsaa07-08] Alumni Updates

Hello all,

Greetings fellow Pinoy Librarians!

We will be releasing UPLSAA newsletter (online version) this month. This year, the board decided to release just the online version of the newsletter for environmental and financial reasons. Doing so will allow us to save on publishing and mailing costs, and it will be easier on the trees. It will also allow us to release the newsletter more often (should the need arise), plus we'll have a wider reach if we just published online.

Rest assured that it will still be the same newsletter (but I'd like to think it's even better) because now, we are not hampered by page and postage limitations. We believe that this change is for the better both economically and environmentally.

Anyway, if you would like to have your personal and/or professional updates included in our upcoming issue (new graduates, new job, promotion, change of civil status, delivered a paper, published a scholarly article, received a grant/scholarship) please email us right away with the pertinent information. Please also include your full name, degree and year of graduation from the Institute so we can update our directory (sorry, us old-timers still refer to SLIS as the institute.

You may email your updates to us:
Eimee Lagrama (Pres) - emang796@yahoo. com
Troy Lacsamana (PRO) - troybdude@yahoo. com

Please send it on or before Sunday, 18 Nov. 2007. And feel free to forward this to other alumni.

We hope to hear from you.

Cheers,

Eimee Lagrama
President, UPLSAA 2007-08

P.S.

We are having a training session for the Marikina Youth Center Library Volunteers this Saturday at the Aklatang Pambata, Paltok , QC . We'll begin at 9am until (about) 4pm. If you'd like to join us, let us know. See you this Saturday!
