Here is what NMRT had to say about our chapter in this article<\/a>:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>The Student Chapter of the Year Award Committee was impressed by San Jose State University iSchool\u2019s member engagement with 802 subscribers to their newsletter. The chapter is highly active in programs, projects, and activities. SJSU held monthly meetings to update each other on individual and team activities, progress, and goals, as well as vote on actions needed. The chapter used a variety of communication services such as the student chapter website and blog, social media, Flickr, YouTube, and Linktree. Through dedication of its members, this chapter has made significant contributions to the school and ALA.<\/span>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
