The Alma Working Group is reorganizing. We will be forming  several functional sub-groups. Members of the groups will  consult on enhancements in specific areas, provide input to Ex Libris when requested, and work toward improvement of Alma.

We are seeking 6-7 volunteers to appoint to each group for following areas: Resource Management, Resource Sharing, Acquisitions,  Fulfillment, and Alma Digital. We need to try to evenly distribute membership between staff from North American institutions (ELUNA) and the international community (IGeLU). Terms of office will last 1 or 2 years, since we need to stagger appointments.  No previous ELUNA or IGeLU experience is required and you are not required to attend the conferences. .

The time commitment will likely be 1-4 hours per month, depending on what the group is working on. Active participation is expected. We suggest that you discuss volunteering with your supervisor before putting your name forward.  

Please fill out the form below if you would like to participate. If you are interested in more than one area, please indicate your first and second choice. THE FORM WILL STAY OPEN UNTIL ALL SLOTS ARE FILLED OR UNTIL JANUARY 31,2020, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. If you have questions, please contact current Alma WG chair, Betsy Friesen (b-frie@umn.edu).
