Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections September 2016 - 9

Society Reports plan. The consensus of the committee was to maintain the excellent tracking document in the format that Linda Ford designed and to think of the strategic plan as more of a living document that can be revised as needed, rather than embarking on a new strategic planning exercise. This was the last meeting of the Long Range Planning Committee chaired by Linda Ford; after this meeting Barbara Thiers assumed the leadership of this committee. Attending the committee were Laura Abraczinskas, Lori Benson, Bryan Brunet, Linda Ford, Travis Marsico, Ann Molineux, Deborah Paul, Suzanne Ryder, Jeff Stephenson and Barbara Thiers. Respectfully submitted, Barbara Thiers and Sue Ryder, Co-chairs Membership Committee The Membership Committee focuses on ways to promote the Society and retain existing, and attract new, members. We promote SPNHC at conferences by advertising in conference literature and exhibiting the Membership Booth. Please contact Tiffany Adrain (tiffanyadrain@uiowa.edu) if you would like materials to distribute or display at any conferences you attend. You may be eligible for complimentary registration. Thank you to SPNHC members Kari Harris and Deb Lewis for exhibiting the booth at the Botany 2016 conference. The next booth display will be at the Geological Society of America Meeting in Denver in September 2016. Thank you, also, to Ann Pinzl for writing Member Profiles for the SPNHC Connection newsletter. Please contact Ann (apinzl@sbcglobal.net) to nominate yourself or a fellow SPNHC member for a profile feature. The Committee would be happy to hear from anyone with connections in future SPNHC Annual Meeting locations who can help us widen the membership reach of the Society. As always, please encourage your colleagues to join SPNHC and remember to renew your membership on time! Respectfully submitted, Tiffany Adrain, Chair Professional Development Committee Committee The Professional Development Committee met at the SPNHC conference in Berlin in June and had a very productive meeting. Jennifer Strotman is now co-chair of the committee along with Jeff Stephenson. The PDC has defined five areas of work and some short-term, mid-term, and long-term projects: * Committee structure and tasks * Demo Camp * Workshops * Travel grants * Wiki and web The PDC will have working groups and subcommittees to head up these projects. Jennifer and Jeff will take the lead on redrafting the Leadership Manual for the PDC. We will ask for reviews from all committee members and this will form the first part of our wiki page for the SPNHC website. The expected deadline for the PCD Leadership Manual is the end of September. An updated committee roster list will be ready by the beginning of September. Rob Huxley is assisting on committee structure and tasks. DemoCamp The Demo Camp at the 2016 Berlin SPNHC conference was a success. Jennifer Strotman, who took over the lead for organizing the Demo Camp shortly before the conference, is looking for ways to improve the camp and offer more for attendees at next year's conference in Denver. Mentorship and Travel Grants The PDC helped to coordinate the SPNHC mentorship program including this year's four Fitzgerald Travel Grant awardees and one awardee for the Christine Allen Travel Grant. We enjoyed working with all of the mentors and mentees and look forward to hearing what they gained from the conference and the mentorship experience. Fitzgerald Travel Grant awardees included the following: * Suzie Li Wan Po from the Cambridge University Museum of Zoology. Suzie's presentation was "Needle Felting Fills: Creating Fills for Areas of Fur Loss using Needle Felting as a Technique." Cathy Hawks served as her mentor. September 2016 * 9
