Colleagues,



The expansion of the scope of the HBCU Library Alliance is a priority for t=
he Board of Directors. A draft fundraising case statement has been prepared=
 and members have provided values statements in support of this initiative.=
 Thanks to everyone who participated.



The Board is inviting your assistance!



The unique library collections within our institutions are widely used by s=
cholars, authors, researchers, HBCU presidents, alumni and other notable fi=
gures. As we develop additional fundraising materials, we want to engage th=
is community and include their comments on the value of these collections a=
nd how they are being used.  These comments will be added to our arsenal of=
 values statements and to the HBCU Library Alliance's website.  There may a=
lso be opportunities for these notable figures to serve with us in an advoc=
acy role.



We've created a three-item survey requesting your contacts as described abo=
ve and your assistance to make necessary connections.  Paste this link http=
s://www.surveymonkey.com/r/PPX6SKP into your address bar and respond to the=
 survey no later than Monday, September 25th.



Contact me directly if you have questions or need additional information.  =
Your continued support is appreciated.



Stay tuned!



Sandra
