The three librarians behind this meeting are considered MAC's founders: Estelle Brodman, Scott Adams, and Ida Marian Robinson. "," At the second meeting, in 1953, a study committee recommended that the group affiliate with the Medical Library Association, but retain semi-independent status. Passage of the 1964 Library Assistance Act led to grouping Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, and North Carolina together as Region IV. Similarly the Washington area group expanded its boarders to take in North Carolina, formerly associated with a southern group, and West Virginia. In the early years the group had no formal officers although a chair was designated to handle the details of the annual meetings. The meetings rotated between the various states of the group. "," At the 1971 annual meeting, the group's name was changed to the Mid-Atlantic Regional Group (MARG). Three years later the group began discussions to establish a more formal organizational framework to coincide with discussions held at the national level. MLA adopted a new group structure in 1979 that brought additional changes for MARG. "," In 1981 MARG was reorganized into a chapter, the Mid-Atlantic Chapter (MAC). It completed its mandatory three-year test for compliance with MLA chapter guidelines in 1985. The semiannual newsletter,  MAC Messages , began in 1984. The newsletter would become quarterly in 1986, then bimonthly in 1990.  MAC Messages  was published  online  beginning in 1995. "," Additional information on the  history of MAC  is available on the organization's web site.","MAC officers and committee chairs retained the records of the organization until they were gathered together through the efforts of Diane McKenzie and the MAC Records Task Force.","The Collection includes the group's many committee reports (financial, membership, executive, etc.) as well as Board of Directors minutes and publications. The bulk of the collection documents the organization's annual meetings. Included are the packets, schedules, and agendas as well as planning documents for most of the annual meetings. In addition the records include membership roles, course descriptions for professional development and distance education courses, financial records, unit histories as well as copies of the  MAC Messages  newsletter. The materials date from the mid-1950s to the present.

The three librarians behind this meeting are considered MAC's founders: Estelle Brodman, Scott Adams, and Ida Marian Robinson. "," At the second meeting, in 1953, a study committee recommended that the group affiliate with the Medical Library Association, but retain semi-independent status. Passage of the 1964 Library Assistance Act led to grouping Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, and North Carolina together as Region IV. Similarly the Washington area group expanded its boarders to take in North Carolina, formerly associated with a southern group, and West Virginia. In the early years the group had no formal officers although a chair was designated to handle the details of the annual meetings. The meetings rotated between the various states of the group. "," At the 1971 annual meeting, the group's name was changed to the Mid-Atlantic Regional Group (MARG). Three years later the group began discussions to establish a more formal organizational framework to coincide with discussions held at the national level. MLA adopted a new group structure in 1979 that brought additional changes for MARG. "," In 1981 MARG was reorganized into a chapter, the Mid-Atlantic Chapter (MAC). It completed its mandatory three-year test for compliance with MLA chapter guidelines in 1985. The semiannual newsletter,  MAC Messages , began in 1984.

The show, a weekly TV news magazine hosted by Lucky Severson, was created to educate the public about current developments in genetics and life sciences,as well as the applications of the research from these fields. Ward Television Corporation produced the program in collaboration with six leading life sciences research institutions: Harvard University; Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (Cambridge, England); University of California, San Fancisco; University of Michigan; University of Wisconsin, Madison; and VCU. The project was funded in part by Oracle and the Pfizer Foundation. Each episode consisted of three, eight-minute segements which featured the work of scientists and researchers from the participating institutions. The show debued on April 7, 2002 and ran until March 2003 with a total of 52 episodes aired.","The idea for SOTS began at VCU due to President Eugene P. Trani's active support for the life sciences. He spearheaded the creation of VCU Life Sciences, a comprehensive program intergrating the School of Medicine, VCU Health System, the Inger and Walter Rice Center for Environmental Life Sciences, and programs in the sciences, engineering, business, education, and the humanities. This program was created to educate not only students, but the broader public as well to raise awarness about research and advancements in the Life Sciences. In 2001 VCU engaged the services of McGrath/Crossen Associates, a public relations firm, to find ways of promoting these ideas to the community at large and to raise the profile of the University. The concept of the show was created and other institutions were invited to join in the project. At a press conference in March 2002 to promote SOTS Dr. Trani stated that the series represented a \"breakthrough in the effort to establish a public dialogue about the implications of research in a post-genomic era.\" He discussed the need for an informed society for the formation of responsible public policy on these issues and declared, \"where the public goes, so goes the future of education and public policy.\"","Fifty of the best segments of the SOTS shows were adapted to assist teachers in the application of genetic research across the biology curriculum. These 8-10 minute videos were made available for free download through VCU. This project was funded by the Pfizer Foundation and the National Academy of Sciences. Additional funding from the Howard Hughes Medical Institution allowed for the creation of more videos which have been added to the site. Each video includes an accompanying classroom-tested lesson that encourages students to further explore the video topics. These vidoes can be found at   http://www.sosq.vcu.edu","The videos in Series 3 are in various formats. The majority are recorded on Sony Betacam SP cassettes.

The show, a weekly TV news magazine hosted by Lucky Severson, was created to educate the public about current developments in genetics and life sciences,as well as the applications of the research from these fields. Ward Television Corporation produced the program in collaboration with six leading life sciences research institutions: Harvard University; Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (Cambridge, England); University of California, San Fancisco; University of Michigan; University of Wisconsin, Madison; and VCU. The project was funded in part by Oracle and the Pfizer Foundation. Each episode consisted of three, eight-minute segements which featured the work of scientists and researchers from the participating institutions. The show debued on April 7, 2002 and ran until March 2003 with a total of 52 episodes aired.","The idea for SOTS began at VCU due to President Eugene P. Trani's active support for the life sciences. He spearheaded the creation of VCU Life Sciences, a comprehensive program intergrating the School of Medicine, VCU Health System, the Inger and Walter Rice Center for Environmental Life Sciences, and programs in the sciences, engineering, business, education, and the humanities. This program was created to educate not only students, but the broader public as well to raise awarness about research and advancements in the Life Sciences. In 2001 VCU engaged the services of McGrath/Crossen Associates, a public relations firm, to find ways of promoting these ideas to the community at large and to raise the profile of the University. The concept of the show was created and other institutions were invited to join in the project. At a press conference in March 2002 to promote SOTS Dr. Trani stated that the series represented a \"breakthrough in the effort to establish a public dialogue about the implications of research in a post-genomic era.\" He discussed the need for an informed society for the formation of responsible public policy on these issues and declared, \"where the public goes, so goes the future of education and public policy.\"","Fifty of the best segments of the SOTS shows were adapted to assist teachers in the application of genetic research across the biology curriculum. These 8-10 minute videos were made available for free download through VCU. This project was funded by the Pfizer Foundation and the National Academy of Sciences. Additional funding from the Howard Hughes Medical Institution allowed for the creation of more videos which have been added to the site. Each video includes an accompanying classroom-tested lesson that encourages students to further explore the video topics. These vidoes can be found at   http://www.sosq.vcu.edu","The videos in Series 3 are in various formats. The majority are recorded on Sony Betacam SP cassettes.

The show, a weekly TV news magazine hosted by Lucky Severson, was created to educate the public about current developments in genetics and life sciences,as well as the applications of the research from these fields. Ward Television Corporation produced the program in collaboration with six leading life sciences research institutions: Harvard University; Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (Cambridge, England); University of California, San Fancisco; University of Michigan; University of Wisconsin, Madison; and VCU. The project was funded in part by Oracle and the Pfizer Foundation. Each episode consisted of three, eight-minute segements which featured the work of scientists and researchers from the participating institutions. The show debued on April 7, 2002 and ran until March 2003 with a total of 52 episodes aired.","The idea for SOTS began at VCU due to President Eugene P. Trani's active support for the life sciences. He spearheaded the creation of VCU Life Sciences, a comprehensive program intergrating the School of Medicine, VCU Health System, the Inger and Walter Rice Center for Environmental Life Sciences, and programs in the sciences, engineering, business, education, and the humanities. This program was created to educate not only students, but the broader public as well to raise awarness about research and advancements in the Life Sciences. In 2001 VCU engaged the services of McGrath/Crossen Associates, a public relations firm, to find ways of promoting these ideas to the community at large and to raise the profile of the University. The concept of the show was created and other institutions were invited to join in the project. At a press conference in March 2002 to promote SOTS Dr. Trani stated that the series represented a \"breakthrough in the effort to establish a public dialogue about the implications of research in a post-genomic era.\" He discussed the need for an informed society for the formation of responsible public policy on these issues and declared, \"where the public goes, so goes the future of education and public policy.\"","Fifty of the best segments of the SOTS shows were adapted to assist teachers in the application of genetic research across the biology curriculum. These 8-10 minute videos were made available for free download through VCU. This project was funded by the Pfizer Foundation and the National Academy of Sciences. Additional funding from the Howard Hughes Medical Institution allowed for the creation of more videos which have been added to the site. Each video includes an accompanying classroom-tested lesson that encourages students to further explore the video topics. These vidoes can be found at   http://www.sosq.vcu.edu","The videos in Series 3 are in various formats. The majority are recorded on Sony Betacam SP cassettes.
