[Cohsl-list] Modern Greek Resources Project update

Dear All: First of all, let me say thank you to all who have posted to the list, offering helpful information and follow-ups to our Athens meeting. I offer the following as an update to the Modern Greek Resources Project, which still has to go through some official steps before it becomes an official GRN: James Simon has advised that we need to set up an executive committee, which will formulate a vision statement and objectives. Once the objectives have been articulated, working groups will be established and we will ask for participation from all of you. James recommended that we form the executive committee based on past, present and future MGSA Library Committee leadership as follows, and all have agreed to participate: Rebecka Lindau, past Chair of the MGSA Library Committee, Rhea Lesage, current Chair of the MGSA Library Committee, George Paganelis, incoming Chair of the MGSA Library Committee Maria Georgopoulou, Greek representative James Simon, ex-officio from CRL The executive committee will draft the proposal and post it to the CoHSL-list for comments and suggestions. We will use this list-serv as a means of communication for the project. Please note that we will all meet again at the MGSA conference which is scheduled for October 18-20, 2007 at the Omni Hotel, in New Haven, Connecticut, coordinated by the Hellenic Studies Program at Yale University. (Thanks to Tony Oddo from Yale for reserving a time and place for the MGSA Library Committee to meet.) Please try to attend the symposium. The MGSA is marking its 20th anniversary and should prove to be a most interesting event! All the best, Rhea
