The Midwest Chapter Business Meeting on October 20 was an eventful one. Along with all the normal usual business meeting agenda items, the revised bylaws were passed. Thank you to Sheryl Stevens and the Bylaws Review Special Committee for all their hard work!
Of course, the highlight of the business meeting is the announcement of our chapter award winners. Logan Ludwig, Associate Dean, Loyola University Health Sciences Library is the 2008 winner of Distinguished Librarian of the Year award.
Gundersen Lutheran Library and Health Information Services Department (LaCrosse, WI) was awarded the 2008 Jean Williams Sayre Innovation Award for their work on the GLine database of publications by hospital researchers. Mary Jo Boland accepted the award.
Our scholarship and professional development award winners were also introduced to the membership during the business meeting. Watch for their conference reports in the upcoming issue of MIDLINE!
