As the quaking aspen trees turn yellow in the higher elevations of Arizona and the desert evening temperatures begin to creep below the 80 degree mark, I hope you all enjoy browsing the latest issue of the the AZ Chapter Bulletin in the comfort of your offices or homes. For those technologists in the group, the present issue and the March and Summer Bulletin issues can be web accessed: http://www.sla.org/chapter/caz/index.html
The upcoming year promises to be an exciting one so I recommend we all get plenty of rest and invest in some running shoes. We have a 20th Chapter anniversary to celebrate and numerous events in the planning stages.
In July, a strategic meeting meeting was held in Casa Grande to review the last vision and planning sessions, which were held in 1993, and to brainstorm future promotional activities to strengthen the Chapter. Attendees included the president (Chris Vathis Howell), program chair/president-elect, (Laura Bender), past president (Ann Eagan), treasurer (Polin Lei), secretary (Louis Howley), PR chairperson (Michelle Clarimont), and professional development chair (Jennie Olesak). The outcomes from this meeting were presented at the business meeting on September 24th in Tucson. Next steps include prioritizing the list of promotional activities and reporting these to the membership.
The first business meeting of my presidency was followed by a program sponsored by the professional development committee (Bambi Wessel and Jennie Olesak). Both the business meeting and program that followed were well attended --possibly due to the fact that Herbert White was the guest speaker. Future events are noted within the covers of this bulletin as well as on the web page, which is maintained by Jack Mount.
An organization is only as good as the people that comprise it. Herb White makes the points "the quality of the library is in its staff" and "Librarianship is a people profession." I know many of you are involved in promoting your libraries and developing your information "accessing" skillsets. The Arizona Chapter of SLA has quality staff - YOU. By actively participating in committees, programs or networking events, you enrich the organization; thereby, giving you something in return -professional development, mentoring opportunities, and friendships that will bridge the professional and personal spaces of your life.
I encourage you to participate and welcome your inquiries on how to manage this in our busy worlds. Yes, I too juggle a few balls - a demanding job (Intel - where only the paranoid survive!), a new husband who doesn't always understand that research takes time, and my own perfectionism that eats alway at time in everything thing I do from gardening to tennis. However, this organization has the potential to enrich me as an individual and I hope you too will be challenged to participate and give back something to Librarianship.

Members present
Executive Board: Chris Vathis-Howell, Laura Bender, Ann Eagan, Polin Lei Officers: Jennie Mueller-Alexander, Carla Smith, Ann Strickland, Jack Mount Sara O'Neil, Pat Morris, Tom Turner, Bambi Wessel, Claire Macha
Call to Order
Chapter President, Chris Vathis-Howell, welcomed everyone to her first meeting as President at 11:35 a.m. Jennie Mueller-Alexander moved and Laura Bender seconded that the minutes of the May 16, 1997 meeting be approved; motion passed.
Executive Board Reports
President Chris Vathis-Howell--Chris gave an overview of the activities that took place over the summer. Members of the Executive Board met in Casa Grande in July for a strategic planning and visioning meeting. Many ideas came out of that meeting (see Strategic Program Chairs report below), including the need to increase our membership. Chris also gave highlights of her trip to the SLA Annual Conference in Seattle. She brought back some key learnings:
Librarians need to be more decisive, and position themselves to play a central role in information provision, especially vis-a-vis the new technology. Bill Gates illustrated the importance of librarians in his discussion of the new information centers at Microsoft. The centers are manifested through webpages that boast scalability, manageability, push technology and daily news feeds and librarians were/are instrumental in their design.
It would prove beneficial to have our Arizona Chapter participate in the next Southwest Regional Conference with the Rio Grande Chapter--members walked away from that conference with approximately $3500 each for their respective chapters. Chris and Ann Eagan attended a post mortem discussion about the conference, and are excited about the possibilities.
Chris acknowledged the good work done by Jack Mount on our Chapters Webpage, and encouraged him to keep it up. She announced the existence of the new IRC (Information Resource Center) at SLA headquarters, and presented information flyers about it for members use. She also mentioned the importance of volunteering for the Arizona Chapters 20 Anniversary Celebration (an event that will be central in our planning for the next few months). President Elect/Program Chair, Laura Bender--Laura reminded the membership to mark their calendars for several future events:
October 16, 1997 will be the 2nd program in the Getting Out of the Box Series, entitled Giving Users What They Really NEED. It will take place in the Cowden Center, Rms. 1A & B at John C. Lincoln Hospital, Phoenix Arizona, from 10 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Cost will be $10.00 for SLA members, $15.00 for non-members, and $5.00 for students. Participants will earn 0.03 CE credits for this program.
October 21, 1997 will be a program jointly sponsored by ASIS and the Arizona Chapter of SLA. Dr. Suzanne Weisband, of the Management Information Systems Dept. at the University of Arizona, will speak about Ethics on the Internet. UA Main Library, Room 313, from 9:30 - 10:30 a.m. Admission (payable at the door): $5.00 for chapter development, $3.00 for students.
November 5-7, AzLA, Phoenix, Arizona. The Arizona Chapter of SLA and Estrella Mountain Community College will help sponsor the Coaches Corner at the Annual Conference.
November 20, 1997 will be a program jointly sponsored by AzALL (Arizona Association of Law Librarians), the Arizona Chapter of SLA, Lexis-Nexis, and Michie Publishing Co. featuring Dan Martin, Pepperdine University Law Librarian. Dan will discuss his experiences with writing and publishing and pass along tips for success. It will take place from 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. at the Arizona Hall of Fame, 1101 W. Washington, Phoenix, Arizona.
November, 1997 -- An announcement will be forthcoming about a November Business Meeting and networking luncheon.
Laura encouraged the membership to contribute more ideas for programs, and to volunteer for the 20th Anniversary Planning Committee.
Strategic Planning Chair, Ann Eagan--Ann recapped the highlights of the Strategic Planning Committee meeting held in Casa Grande, July 23, 1997, and asked for other possible ideas for the coming year. Discussion ensued about increasing member participation; Tom Turner questioned whether the Chapter listserv could be used for public relations purposes. There was agreement that it could.
Mary Guilbert mentioned she has had good experiences with the SOLOLIB listserv for getting ideas about events and planning. Claire Macha asked about the feasibility of public announcement video clips for the chapter, and the membership thought this would be a good idea for Michelle Clairmont, Public Relations Chair, to pursue. Pat Morris suggested we start exchange programs with special libraries in the state where members can shadow employees and get a feel for the type of work they do. Tom Turner, Membership Chair, encouraged members to send him names of prospective members. He will introduce himself, represent the organization and send prospects an information packet. Ann said that next steps will include formalizing the list of suggestions generated at the strategic planning meeting and the 9/24/97 business meeting, sending the list to the membership, and having the membership vote on the activities they wish to pursue.
Treasurer, Polin Lei
Polin received a notice from Scott Smiley at SLA headquarters inviting the Arizona Chapter to join a pooled fund. Polin believes the chapter is not yet ready to participate in that fund. She also reminded the membership that each time she pays out more than $600.00, she must report the expenditure to SLA headquarters.
Secretary, Louis Howley--Louis prepared the minutes for the May 16, 1997 meeting. He was unable to attend the Sept. 24th meeting, and Laura Bender took the minutes on his behalf.
Officer Reports
Affirmative Action Chair, Jennie Mueller-Alexander--Jennie went to a meeting of Affirmative Action chairs during the Annual Conference in Seattle. She will be putting together a database of people and schools/institutions involved with career days. She is looking for people representing diverse/different ways to represent information science and librarianship as a career. She's looking for volunteers. Chris Vathis-Howell will check with other chapters/groups to see if they have lists Jennie could use.
Bulletin Editor, Carla Smith--Carla had good news for the Chapter: she is able to copy the bulletin at her workplace. She is also working with Webmaster, Jack Mount, to get the bulletin/newsletter on the Web, thus making archived copies available to the membership. Carla asked the membership to submit items for the bulletin at any time.
Bulletin Business Manager, Lisa Bradley--Carla Smith reported that Lisa Bradley just changed jobs and is now with the Sensor Division at Motorola.
Career Guidance Chair, Ann Strickland--Ann wants to encourage students to participate in all SLA events. She was glad to see the new Student Chapter President, Eileen Smith, present at the 9/24 meeting, and looks forward to working with her. She also indicated interest in working with Jennie Mueller-Alexander on the career days project.
Chapter Archivist/Webmaster, Jack Mount--Jack has had good feedback on the Chapters page, and will continue to weed through possible archival materials. He is working with Carla Smith to archive the bulletin, and post current issues on the Web. He will be working with the incoming 20th Anniversary Committee to put up a page about the activities planned for that event, and to archive past documents, including the chapters proclamation.
Consultant Chair, Lucy Marshall--Lucy could not make it to the 9/24 meeting, but she has been working with Wanda Poindexter at Donnelly Optics to help the latter set up an information center.
Employment Chair, Cinda McClain--Cinda could not make it to the 9/24 meeting, but sent her report via email: Currently there are six people in her job seekers group. She has received only three position openings, but has forwarded a number of other listings to the seekers group. She said Jack Mount has been very helpful in posting job vacancies and updating employment-related information on the chapter website.
Government Relations Chair, Sara ONeil--Sara mentioned that privacy issues, including the Communications Decency Act, are now in the forefront. She will keep us posted on any new developments.
International Relations Chair, Pat Morris--Pat would like the Chapter to get involved in a partnership with AzLA in a program for National Library Week. She would like International Relations to have more of a Web presence to encourage exchanges and other shared programs. Pat encouraged the membership to send her ideas for new programs.
Membership Chair, Tom Turner--Tom said at latest count the Chapter had 127 members. He is working hard to increase membership, and has called lapsed members to encourage membership renewal. He raised a question about having the membership lists on the Web. Judith Gorman indicated that SLA had a policy (due to privacy) of not listing membership lists. However, the membership itself could decide. Ann Eagan indicated that the membership prefers not to post the membership list on the Web at this time.
Networking Chair - Tucson, Jane Matter--Jane was not able to attend the meeting on 9/24, but indicated to Laura Bender that she was planning a November networking luncheon with the final date to be decided.
Networking Chair - Phoenix, Sara Ashton--Sara was not able to attend the 9/24 meeting. She has sent out a survey to me Phoenix membership to solicit ideas for networking.
Professional Development, Bambi Wessel--Bambi reported that 32 people had signed up for the Herb White talk. She and Jennie Oleksak will keep us posted about future programs. Bambi also reported that Jennie had given birth to baby, Katie, on Monday, Sept. 22, and both mother and daughter were doing well. Congratulations, Jennie!
Publications/Directory Chair, Laura Bender--Laura reported that sales of the Directory have slowed down. She has found a student who will help her with a general mailing to the participant libraries to encourage future buying.
Public Relations Chair, Michelle Clairmont--Michelle was not able to attend the 9/24 meeting. No report.
Student Chapter Liaison, Claire Macha--Claire introduced Student Chapter President, Eileen Smith, and asked her to say a few words. Eileen mentioned that the chapter was planning several tours this year, to help acquaint students with all types of libraries and information centers. She looks forward to working with the Arizona Chapter of SLA.
Old Business
Ann Eagan will contact Dr. Sandy Hirsch at the Library School to follow-up about the Florida survey. The Executive Board was charged with finding a way to have conductors of the survey reimbursed for telephone calls, e.g. phone cards. Ann will keep us posted.
20th Anniversary Celebration
President Chris Vathis-Howell asked for volunteers for the Planning Committee. She stated she would volunteer people herself if she did not get any response. So far, Mara Pinckard, Carla Smith, and Ann Strickland have volunteered to help out. Program Chair, Laura Bender, and Archivist, Jack Mount will also be involved.
President Chris Vathis-Howell spoke to the membership about various handouts she had received from SLA headquarters. Among them were award nomination forms, and handouts introducing the IRC concept at SLA. Contact her if you would like more information, or would like to have one of the forms.
Laura Bender moved, and Bambi Wessel seconded, that the meeting be adjourned. The meeting was adjourned at 12:43 p.m.
Respectfully submitted, Laura Bender (for Louis Howley)
Currently, Chris is an information specialist with Intel Corporation. Her job duties include supporting the business information needs of a profit and loss business group as well as managing the central reference team (the library's information triage team) and project leader for the marketing efforts of all Intel libraries (named Employee Resource Centers).
Previous work experience includes K-12 library coordinator for a school district of 8000 students in Pennsylvania, middle school librarian, government documents librarian at Arizona State University, and associate librarian in the fee-based service, First, also at ASU.
Professional association activities include past Secretary of SLA AZ Chapter, Member-at-Large for AzLA, Editor Pennsylvania School Librarians journal, "Learning and Media."
Chris received a Master's of Librarianship at the University of Denver and an Advanced Certificate in Information Studies from Drexel University.
In her spare time - what spare time? Chris has recently married, travels to exotic places on scuba diving adventures whenever time permits, and plays tennis regularly in a league. She enjoys her gardening and of course, reading... Recently she has become a rock hound with help from her husband, Tom, who is a pilot for America West and dabbles in minerals, gas and oil businesses.
Librarianship is actually my second career. After many years as a social worker and a couple of years as a typesetter (an interim stint at owning my own business),
I decided to go back to graduate library school at the University of Arizona. I've been a librarian for 15 years and have had opportunities in public, corporate and academic environments. Most of my library experience has focused on business and scientific disciplines, but I have also held adjunct positions in the social sciences and humanities.
I'm currently liaison to the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Arizona, as well as the Family and Consumer Resources Department in the College of Agriculture. Never a dull moment!
Please come to this second teleconference in the "Getting Out of the Box" series.
Panelists include library managers who have transformed their positions and their libraries, who have learned to listen to their users and build information functions that really meet users' needs.

DEADLINE FOR REGISTRATION
Friday, October 10, 1997
The Heart of America Chapter is trying to contact all former members. Our 50th anniversary is next year & we'll be ringing it in with a bang! We're looking to invite anyone who was ever in our chapter to our big shindig.
I'm having an identity crisis. Do I want to curf (yuk) the net or talk hardware/software. All I know is that after curfing the net for eons my computer is acting sluggish. You know, like it needs a good cleansing. After all, it is old and you know how us old ones are.
Here are some things you can do to keep your computer running smoother without calling on the techies. First is a scandisk. Scandisk is a full-features disk analysis and repair program built right into DOS and WIN95. It checks and fixes the file allocation table, the file system structure, the directory tree structure, and the physical surface of the drive. In short, scandisk checks to make sure that files are found where the computer thinks they should be found. If you have Windows 3 or higher run scandisk from DOS. At the c:\ type scandisk (c:\ scandisk).
It takes just a minute or two. For Win95: START | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Scandisk. Highlight the C: drive and put check marks in the Standard box and the Automatically Fix Errors box. It takes about a minute after you click the start button.
If you put the following line in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, you can ensure that scandisk runs each time you boot you turn on your computer: SCANDISK C:/AUTOFIX/NOSAVE/NOSUMMARY
The next fix is to get rid of all the .temp files on the C: drive. These files may or may not be associated with your curfing activities but you don't need them and they do take up disk space on the drive. For WIN 3.1, look in your File Manager or look for the extension .tmp. For WIN95 users, go to Windows Explorer.
Third is to clean out the .hst files. As I use Netscape, I have to look for the netscape.hst in the Netscape directory on my C: drive. I hadn't cleaned mine out in over six months and was I surprised at where I had been. This file is a complete record of when and where you have been on the net. With Windows 3, go the File Manager, C drive, look for your browser. Example: Netscape, click and you should see Netscape.hst. Delete. In WIN95, you will have to bring up your browser. In Explorer, go to View | Advanced | Options | Navigator | then click Clear and Clear History. For Netscape, go to Options | Preferences | Cache | click Clear | Memory | click Now and Clear Disk and Cache Now.
In WIN 3.1 you have to clean out the CACHE file manually. This is the file with all the .gif, .htm, .jpg, etc. files. Go to the File Manager and click on C: the find your internet provider or the word internet. Click and you should see Cache. Click on cache. To delete files go up to File and select Select. In the pop-up window you select batch files - *.* (this should be highlighted), Select, Close, Delete, OK, Yes to all files. Your cache is emptied.
COOKIES are another story. Some you need and most you don't. I hate them with a passion so I delete them after I log off the net at the end of the day. In WIN 3 go to File Manager and click on your browser and look for cookies.txt, go the File and Delete. For WIN95 go Programs, Explorer, and look for your browser, click, and then look for the cookie file on the right side of your screen. Highlight, File, and Delete, and the offending things are gone. Don't worry about deleting the entire file as it will (unfortunately) be created the next time you log on to the net.
The above takes a few minutes, but should be done at least weekly to keep your computer running smoothly!
The following list of ideas for the chapter to pursue was compiled from suggestions by members of the Executive Board and other members of the chapter during the last Strategic Planning meeting snf the September chapter meeting.
There are more than five ideas so you will have duplicates. We can't do them all, at least not this year, so think about which of these ideas would move the chapter forward the most, which are most do-able, which ideas you want to see happen, and which ideas you are willing to work on.
Please send your ranked list BY October 31 to:
