Subject: MAGERT Nominee for ALA Council
 
 
 
 
     Those of you who belong to the American Library Association may want to
keep an eye out for a new addition to the ALA ballot.  For the first time, round
tables, including the Map and Geography Round Table, have an opportunity to
elect representatives to ALA Council.  Large round tables (such as the
Government Documents Round Table) each have one representative on Council.  The
five smaller round tables, including MAGERT, will be voting as a group to elect
one person to represent them all.
 
     The MAGERT nominee for this position is Patrick McGlamery.  Pat is head of
the Map and Geographic Information Center at the University of Connecticut, and
is known to many of you for his pioneering work with GIS, and for his role as an
educator in the area of computer mapping.  I am sure he would make an
outstanding representative not only for MAGERT, but also for the other small
roundtables.
