Well, could we move to Clayton in 2023?  Years ago we did have 3 planning at the same time.

We've been talking about a joint meeting with NAHSL since well, I've been a UNYOC member since 1994.

Looking at their conference chairs, I can tell you that Kara and I were invited by Jessica to present at NAHSL last year.   She was very organized and wonderful to work with as we came up to presentation.   If we're going to do it, now might be the chance!

STOP! THINK! External Email!
Good afternoon,

Please see Beth Dyer's email below regarding the possibility of a joint conference in 2022.  I realize that we have already begun planning our conference in Clayton, NY<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.1000islands-clayton.com%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cirishe%40amc.edu%7C2997ae8ac47f4b0207f708d7b6f38ba9%7Cc04845f042244637aed29beea8319b5b%7C0%7C0%7C637179029458468288&sdata=hSk8sB6Fv7arBTwrqWjI%2BdUuDoXE3VIO%2FK8TMGeqUgo%3D&reserved=0> in 2022.

By the time we get to this conference, Olivia will be the Immediate Past Chair and two wonderful but as-yet-unknown people will be the Chair and Vice Chair.
As such, I'm not sure how to adjudicate a discussion with such far-reaching implications.

Perhaps we can start by discussing whether a joint conference is something that we would want to do?
Kim, I think your opinion is very important, given that you'll be the Chair of Conference Planning.  Anyone else whose term on the BOD extends to 2022 should also make sure their voice is heard.

Best Regards,

Lorraine

Good morning Lorraine,



I hope this email finds you well!  I am the chair of NAHSL this year and reaching out to you in your role as UNYOC chair.



NAHSL is in the early phase of planning the 2022 annual conference. This is typically a 2.5 day event that brings together librarians and other information professionals that is held in later October/early November.



We all know that our geographic region is home to some of the most talented and innovative librarians as well as home to some of the most prestigious health sciences libraries in the world.  We are reaching out to you to see if there is interest in the UNYOC chapter joining forces with NAHSL for a joint conference in 2022. We are also asking other surrounding chapters including NY-NJ and Philadelphia. It could be an epic conference!



Naturally, the details are not figured out and we recognize that there are more questions than answers but at this point, we are trying to gauge interest and to determine if this is possible. Please confer with your Board and let us know if you'd like to continue this discussion. Thank you for considering!



Sincerely,



Beth Dyer, NAHSL Chair
