Dear AoIR colleagues I'd like to float the idea of developing an AoIR newsletter. This venture would need to be a team effort and this email is primarily intended to try and sound out support for the idea, and to find out if anyone is interested in working on this. As with all AoIR activity this would be volunteer labour with the attraction of being a great experience. If you want to find out more about AoIR activities, people, resources and related events/work/issues, or if you are an expert in these areas already, this would be a great opportunity to share and develop skills, and enhance or make new connections, and I'm hoping it would also be enjoyable. I'd like to produce two issues, post them to the list, and see what the feedback is. I've got ideas for structure, content, process and resources which I'm happy to discuss further with anyone interested in helping put this together. At this point I'm looking for people from the AoIR membership to act as an editorial team for the newsletter, to input ideas for its structure and content, and to collate AoIR news - in this first and (experimental) instance this would be for 2 newsletters. The main objective is to provide something of value to AoIR, through consolidating communication and links across AoIR, and bringing together information of interest. At this point another important aim is to establish if a newsletter would in fact be useful, and what kind of format, shape and delivery would best serve AoIR - I'm approaching that question by trying it out. If you would be interested helping plan this, and in making up an editorial team, to write and edit a newsletter, and collate AoIR activity, please let me know as soon as possible, and I'll coordinate efforts, both to get an AoIR newsletter together, and to evaluate the process for the first 2 editions. In terms of time lines I'm hoping to get a first issue out soon - this autumn if at all possible. Many thanks for your time in reading this so far - please think about it and email me if you have any questions and/or interest in taking part (in the next 2 to 3 weeks please), volunteers very wellcome! All the best Kate O'Riordan
Dear AoIR colleagues Many thanks to all of you who have replied about the newsletter - and apologies to those whom I've not managed to email back yet! I will be in touch very shortly. This is a reminder of the proposal (see below) - and an update: Given the general support and feedback so far, I'm going ahead with this shortly and I'm finalising a team to work on the first versions. However any other feedback - and any more volunteers still very welcome - but please let me know asap if you are interested in working on this.

Dear Kate, I am a Brazilian Master student and professor with teh same university where I study. My main interest in these later years has been research on reading, mainly the Hypertext and digital genre and their impact on education. That's why I have joined the AIR list If you think I could bring some help to your project, and if there's still time for me to joy your team, let me know.

Dear Eliezer Many thanks for your response - I am sure we can use your skills! I'll be back in touch shortly with more details. All the best, thanks again Kate
Sorry to the list x 2. Kate
Eliezer: I am a doctoral student preparing to defend my dissertation on edutainment & convergence which is quit similar to your topic area. I joined AoIR for the same reason and it has been quite helpful, but more importantly AoIR provides a world perspective and keen insights that one cannot get simply from reading alone. Good luck!
