Digital Medievalist will be holding elections at the end of June for four positions to its Executive Board. Board positions are for two year terms and incumbents may be re-elected. Members of the Board are responsible for the overall direction of the organisation and leading the Digital Medievalist’s many projects and programmes. This is a working board, and so if you are willing and able to commit time to helping Digital Medievalist undertake some of its activities (such as hands on copy-editing of its journal) then please take this into consideration when nominating yourself or accepting a nomination. For further information about the Executive and Digital Medievalist more generally please see the DM website, particularly: – http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/about.html
- http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/bylaws.html
We are now seeking nominations (including self-nominations) for the annual elections. In order to be eligible for election, candidates must be members of Digital Medievalist (membership is conferred by subscription to the organisation’s mailing list, dm-l at uleth.ca) and have made some demonstrable contribution to the DM project (e.g. to the mailing list, or the wiki, etc.), or to the field of digital medieval studies.
If you are interested in running for these positions or are able to recommend a suitable candidate, please contact the returning officers, Peter Stokes and Dan O’Donnell, at
election at digitalmedievalist.org
who will treat your nomination in confidence. The nomination period will close at 0000 UTC Friday June 18 and elections will be held by electronic ballot through the end of the week of July 2, 2010.
Many thanks,
Peter Stokes and Dan O’Donnell
