Dear colleagues,

The Acquisitions and Appraisal Section has openings for three positions on the steering committee:

The duties of these positions are as follows:

The Chair serves as Section representative with respect to SAA, SAA Council, and other groups within SAA; appoints Section subcommittees as needed; and coordinates the preparation of an annual report of Section activities and submits it to the SAA executive office.
