Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of all our fellow officers of the Special
Interest Group for International Information Issues (SIG-III) of the American
Society for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T), we are pleased to
announce the winners of the InfoShare awards for 2011. (http://www.asis.org/SIG/SIGIII/)
Information professionals from developing countries, where
the cost of ASIS&T membership would be a burden, are eligible to receive one
year of membership. SIG-III officers vote on a roster of candidates nominated by
ASIS&T colleagues or others. These memberships are funded by monies raised
at the International Reception during the ASIS&T Annual Meeting. 2010 was a
very successful year for the reception in Pittsburgh and we are thrilled to be able to
offer memberships to six(6) outstanding professional candidates and four(4)
student candidates:
Professional members
