handle is hein.lbr/aafcnlt0010 and id is 1 raw text is: FCIL Newsletter Foreign, Comparative, and International Law Special Interest Section / American Association of Law Libraries Volume 10 Autumn 1995 Number 1 Minutes of the 1995 Business Meeting by Margareta Horiba, Secretary/Treasurer 1993-95 Tulane University Law Library The annual business meeting of the For- eign, Comparative, and International Law Special Interest Section of the American Asso- ciation of Law Libraries was convened at 4:45 p.m. by the outgoing Chair, Lyonette Louis- Jacques. Approximately fifty members and visitors were in attendance. Lyo announced the tenth anniversary of the SIS and had made arrangements to mark the event in a fitting manner after taking care of business. She reported that it would not be advanta- geous to the SIS to go with a publications package plan, as discussed by AALL Head- quarters, and that the SIS would stick with individual subscriptions. She regretted that the regular Sunday meet- ing schedule had been disrupted by the Nation- al Conference on Legal Information. Under normal circumstances the working groups meet for one hour. They provide, she said, an impor- tant opportunity to get involved in the FCIL SIS. The reading of the minutes from the Seattle meeting was dispensed with and approved as published in the October 1994 issue of the newsletter. Margareta gave the treasury report, with the balance as of that day being $169.23, inclusive of known and estimated expenditure. Lyo gave the election results and intro- duced Margareta Horiba, the new Vice Chair/ Chair-Elect, and Radu Popa, the new Secretary/ Treasurer. Radu Popa was not in attendance. Under reports from subcommittees and working groups Jolande Goldberg gave the report for the Education Committee (published separately in the newsletter). Kenneth Rudolf, editor of FCIL Newsletter, acknowledged the considerable contribution to the newsletter by Janice Selberg and Carmen Valero. He said that INT-LAW has taken over the role of small notices. A column on professional activities of members is edited by Mila Rush and a column on processing issues by Aaron Kuperman. Ken announced that the Newsletter is now available on Internet via the World Wide Web. Lyo extended special thanks to Ken for his work on the newsletter. Lyo drew attention to a new working group on International Issues, which she had conceived of and to which she had appointed Ellen Schaffer chair. The group has recently been renamed Working Group on International and Intergovernmental Issues. Other agenda items included a suggestion that the FCIL brochure be updated. It was most recently updated in 1993. There was also a question by Lyo on how FCIL can influence INSIDE Reports from Pittsburgh... p. 3 Philadelphia Institute ... p. 6 News of Our Colleagues ... p. 7 Excursion to Kazakhstan ... p. 8 AALL Call for Papers ... p. 9 Cataloging in a Changing World ... p. 11 What's New on INT-LAW ... p. 14 Volunteers Wanted ...
