Subject: OhioDIG Planning Committee seeks nominations for new members

The OhioDIG Planning Committee seeks nominations for new members!

We welcome potential members with a range of work experience (including students), as well as from different types and sizes of institutions, and from different parts of the state.

Please send an expression of interest to me, Janet Carleton at carleton at ohio.edu<mailto:carleton at ohio.edu> by close of business on Monday, November 27.


 More details on the work:

  *   Currently, the planning committee meets virtually for an hour, 6x a year, in the week prior to the scheduled public event.
  *   Members join for a two-year renewable commitment, with this term beginning in January 2024.
  *   Members should plan to attend at least half of the 6 public events held each year.
  *   For the 3 annual in-person public events, we hope that committee members can attend at least one, and provide some of the refreshments (reimbursed).
  *   Each public event is managed by a team of 2 self-selected planning committee members-with one taking the lead position. It is expected that members will volunteer for this work on an occasional basis. That event planning work occurs through email to potential presenters and on Trello with the committee, as well as discussions in the regular virtual planning meetings.
  *   Planning committee members are expected to follow the group's work on Trello and provide comments and feedback.
  *   Members are also expected to volunteer for an additional role such as updating a specific page on the website, posting to specific social media, managing tracking spreadsheets, managing the coffee kitty, taking meeting minutes, etc.
  *   We work towards membership diversity in type/size of home institution, geographic area, years of professional experience, etc.
  *   The current and past committee members can be seen at https://ohiodig.org/about#planning. All committee members' email addresses are there, so you can contact any member for more information.

**The committee thanks Susan Hernandez, Cleveland Museum of Art, for her work on the committee, 2021-2023!**
