Association Information Services Caucus
The Association Information Services Caucus provides a focal point for networking among association librarians on such unique issues as: demonstrating program quality and value in organizations where every program is an information service program, and the largest "competing" programs are direct income producers; servicing the offsite patron; fee services in associations; the information service's role in association online services for members; security management in small information centers open to the public; and validating acquisitions budgets that go beyond the association's own publications inventory.
