Hi everyone!

As promised by the Wikipedia Library team at the inception of the Wikimedia and Libraries User Group, we are conducting an open-election for the steering committee with 5 to 8 positions. 

Nominations are open now and will remain open until the 9th. If you are interested in being a part of this committee, you can nominate yourself! This position should attract Wikipedians and librarians with dedication and time to lead the user group in its first year. 

The elections will happen following the nominations phase starting from 10 January 2018 to 23 January 2018. Please forward your queries to libraries@lists.wikimedia.org, and for private correspondence, please get in touch with one of the founding members.

And finally, wishing you a prosperous and happy new year on behalf of the user group founding members! 

On behalf of the user group founding members, 

Aaron (UY Scuti)
