Hello Members, We have heard from some of our members that our name, DC Ex Libris User Group, is too limiting and does not reflect who we truly represent as a region. There is interest in changing our name to something that is more suitable for the region. A couple of suggestions we have heard is DMV and Mid-Atlantic. Our regional group represents a number of member sites, including Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC. This email has the goal of evaluating a proposed name change for the DC Ex Libris User Group. It is designed to allow members to express their opinions about the idea of a change and to provide suggestions for a new name.
