At a recent Board meeting I was reminded of the vitality and high level of professional activity as Board and Committee Chairs shared their experiences at the Medical Library Association meeting in Dallas (May 2002).

• Marie Asher is the Chair-Elect for the Public Health/Health Administration section.
• Patricia Gallagher has become the Chair-Elect for the History of the Health Sciences section.
• Dorice Vieira is now the Chair of the Nursing and Allied Health section.
• Dorice is on the Eliot Prize committee.
• George Wahlert was elected Vice Chair of Chapter Council and continues to ably represent the Chapter at Chapter Council.
• George also is the Chair of the Majors Chapter Project of the Year award.
• Maria Astifidis' work at Beth Israel won 2nd prize at the Swap and Shop Public Relations.
• And I am now on the Continuing Education Committee and liaison to the National Program Committee 2004.

I certainly appreciate the time that it takes everyone to be involved not only on the national level but also to continue to be active locally.

The Board also voted to coordinate the Mini Medical School as a proposed symposium at the Medical Library Association meeting in 2004.

We are truly an organization that thinks and acts locally and globally!

Kathel Dunn, Chair
