Forthcoming Events

3rd September 6pm Visit to Scottish Parliament, Edinburgh

There are still a few places left for this visit. Come and find out more 
about the Parliament's own information service - SPICE (Scottish 
Parliament Information Centre) as well a guided tour of the building 
itself. The talk and tour will be followed by drinks and nibbles kindly 
sponsored by NewsDirect who provide a one-stop shop for political 
monitoring, parliamentary training and public affairs support. 
http://www.newsdirect-uk.net/.  This should prove a fascinating visit and 
if you haven't yet been you should get booking now! To secure a place 
please send an e-mail to James Devine [log in to unmask]

November (Date to be confirmed) Look first then leap: making the right 
choices for e-resources, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow

Gail Rogers, Manager, Knowledge Exchange, Scottish Enterprise and Paul 
Cunnea, Electronic Resources Coordinator, National Library of Scotland 
will offer an insight into how you can evaluate and acquire new electronic 
resources for your information service. The talks will be followed by 
drinks and nibbles and this event is being kindly sponsored by Bureau van 
Dijk, a major provider of electronic business content
http://www.bvdep.com/en/   Further details will follow in due course but
please contact John Coll [log in to unmask] if you have any initial questions.

December 3rd Pre-Christmas Drinks, The Dome, Edinburgh

OK, I admit it, There are only 138 shopping days to go before Christmas! 
However, if you plan ahead you can still find time to join SIN members for 
a final drink before the big day. You can even pop in after your 
shopping!  This will be an informal drink (paid for by yourselves, I'm, 
afraid). Let John Coll [log in to unmask] know if you are thinking of coming 
along as we want to gauge interest in this type of social event.

Website

A number of you have been asking what is happening about the website. As 
mentioned in my previous e-mail, our new committee member Andrea 
Schillinger (when she is not looking for that all important job) will be 
undertaking some major redevelopment of the website. Please keep an eye on 
it over the next few weeks. If you wish to contact Andrea about the 
website (or an offer of employment!) pleas e-mail her at [log in to unmask]

Request for help

One of our members is interested in hearing from any SIN member who has 
experience of a job exchange. If this is you please get in touch with 
Alison Leslie at [log in to unmask]

New Committee members

Due to a number of departures over the last year SIN is in urgent need of 
some new committee members. The work is not onerous and involves 
attendance at 5-6 meetings a year and involvement in organising at least 
one event. Involvement is an excellent way to get know many people in this 
sector and could be very useful for career development. If interested 
please contact John Coll [log in to unmask] for an informal chat.

Here for you

The Scottish Information Network was set up to help you. However, to 
thrive and grow it needs an active membership. Please support it in any 
way you can. Whether this be committee work, speaking at an event, 
attending an event or even just sharing news. Each and every way helps SIN.

Best wishes

John
