[ORSLA Communications]

*A Special ORSLA Conversazione: SLA President Gloria Zamora Discusses the
Alignment Project and Name Vote*

ORSLA is pleased to host an evening with SLA President Gloria Zamora on
November 20, where she will present the findings of the Alignment Project
and discuss the upcoming name change vote. President-elect Cindy Romaine
will also be in attendance.

Gloria's visit coincides with first week of *voting on the proposed name
change to the Association of Strategic Knowledge Professionals*. No doubt
many of you have been following the lively debates about the vote on this
Chapter's listserv as well as your Divisions' forums. We believe this
in-person event will afford an excellent opportunity for all ORSLA members
to share their thoughts on this topic directly with the Association's
leadership. All members are encouraged to attend!
