From bmeyersford at nfais.org Thu Feb 1 09:29:32 2018 From: bmeyersford at nfais.org (Barbara Meyers Ford) Date: Thu, 1 Feb 2018 14:29:32 +0000 Subject: [nfais-l] CORRECTION: Posted Title & Description Didn't Match Message-ID: Hello, everyone, the email I sent out yesterday had the title of one NFAIS event (Humanities Roundtable) but the description of another (Journals Subscription Models Workshop). Here's the message text which I had hoped you all would have received. 2018 NFAIS Humanities Roundtable joins the National Humanities Alliance ~ Have you been wanting to go up to Capitol Hill and educate Congress about the importance of humanities? Now's your chance! For the first time NFAIS is partnering with the National Humanities Alliance (NHA) to provide Roundtable participants a different activity. One which offers the opportunity to make a difference. Knowledgeable individuals are needed to make Federal legislators and their staff aware of the contributions to our country and the world made by artists, researchers, and scholars across myriad areas and disciplines. The need for government support of the arts and humanities along with the libraries which provide the information to allow practitioners and scholars to flourish can not be overstated. Humanities Roundtable attendees who are interested are encouraged to remain and attend the NHA's Annual Meeting and Humanities Advocacy Day. By participating in the 2-day NHA program, NFAIS attendees will have the opportunity to avail themselves of access to members of Congress. To review the Preliminary Agenda and register for the NFAIS Humanities Roundtable 2018 please go to http://bit.ly/2kk196w Thanks for considering this special NFAIS event as one to add to your meetings calendar, Barbara Barbara Meyers Ford l Director, Marketing & Communications, NFAIS l bmeyersford at nfais.org -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
