Web Committee
Krista Mantsch, Webmaster
About the DC/SLA Web Site:
The Web Committee was established to implement and maintain the chapter's Web site.

The committee collaborates with the Chapter's Board, Committee Chairs, and Programs to develop content for the web site and acts as the primary resource for Chapter information on the Internet.

The Web Committee consists of the Chapter Webmaster and Committee members who see to it that the DC/SLA Chapter Web Site operates smoothly, provides current and accurate information on the chapter, and facilitates communication amongst all chapter members.

To participate with this committee, or for questions concerning the DC/SLA web site please contact the DC/SLA Webmaster Krista Mantsch.

How to Disseminate Information to your Fellow Chapter Members-
Let us say you have something you would like to share to the library community. That "something" could be publicizing an event, a job announcement, or an article you had written. Not a problem, here is how to do it:

  • Post an Event on the DC/SLA Calendar:
    • Check proposed dates for your event with Greta D. Ober-Beauchesne, the chapter's VP/Pres-Elect to minimize event conflicts.
    • Send an e-mail to Alison Ince so your event can be posted on the DC/SLA Events Calendar. Be sure to identify your event's description, location, time, date, and contact information. If your event is already posted on another site, we can link to that webpage.
    • If you would like a separate event page for your event, please include the information above, as well as a one or two paragraph description of the event and a graphic (either a photo of the speaker or a relevant image).
    • Information in the online calendar will be mailed out in the print calendar once a month.

  • "Push" Your Announcement:
    Web sites are a passive means of communicating. To publicize your event you need to reach out to the members. The best way to do this is to post an event to the DC/SLA Discussion List. For questions about the list, contact the DC/SLA List Administrator, Gulnar Nagashybayeva.

  • Publish your Article:
    Chapter Notes primarily focuses on member-submitted articles or news items. To submit an article or cover an event, contact the Chapter Notes Editor-in-Chief, Lea Wade.

  • Develop a permanent page for your Committee or Group:
    Speak to the about developing a section on the chapter web site for your committee or group.
