The NASIG Evaluation & Assessment Committee wants your feedback on the 2019 NASIG Annual Conference in Pittsburgh, PA. To fill out our evaluation survey, use the following link:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/nasig19

As in previous years, you will be asked to rate the sessions and workshops you attended. You will be asked to rate each presenter, as well as provide an overall rating for the session. You will also have the opportunity to rate other conference events, facilities, and arrangements and to provide input for next year’s conference. The deadline for filling out the survey is July 14, 2019 at 5:00 PM. Conference attendees who complete the survey will be eligible to enter a drawing to win a $50 Amazon gift card.

#NASIG19 is just one week away!

The NASIG Conference is just a week away–WOW!   However, it is not too late.  You can still register online AND for extra convenience you can also register at the conference registration desk any day of the conference.

If you are not able to join us in person this year, you might want to watch online the wonderful Vision Speakers on June 6^th – 8^th.  Streaming through Zoom will be made available just prior to the conference.

Looking forward to a great conference and see you soon!

#NASIG19 is almost here!

The NASIG Conference is almost upon us but it isn’t too late to register!  This year’s conference “Building Bridges: Connecting the Information Community” will be an outstanding conference with many superb speakers and topics.

The NASIG Conference is not only about learning more in our field of work, but also “connecting the information community”.  A great chance to connect with others is by taking part in the dine-arounds or the Fun Run!  Just another way to “connect” us all and a fun NASIG tradition!

Register today! And see you in Pittsburgh!
