We are thrilled to announce that Bonnie Lawlor was elected to the ACS Board of Directors. Bonnie became a Board Member of the CSA Trust in 1990, and since 2002 has also served as Chair for the Grants Committee and as Secretary of the CSA Trust. Congratulations, Bonnie!
In her candidate statement that was published in C&EN about why choose Bonnie Lawlor as the District III Director for the ACS Board, she noted:
“I believe that I will bring valuable expertise to the ACS Board of Directors. I served as the executive director of a nonprofit member organization for more than a decade, successfully managing membership retention and growth, motivating volunteers, and balancing member benefits with fiscal responsibility. My extensive publishing experience provides an understanding of the global issues that threaten ACS’s essential revenue from information products and services, and from a financial perspective, my management positions (and MBA) have provided significant profit and loss hands-on experience. Additionally, I have served as an ACS volunteer for decades, know the organization well, and am willing to work hard for you. For more information on my experience and skills, see the following article: garfield.library.upenn.edu/essays/v15p280y1992-93.pdf.”
