Governance Board Nomination Consolation notice - Email Template

Subject: ArchivesSpace Governance Board nomination

Dear (Name),

Our nomination process has been an extended one, as we received several strong nominations from which we could select only two candidates for our election ballot.

I regret to report that following our extended discussions, the current Board has approved two other candidates for the ballot, which will be announced next week. A number of criteria were factored into the decision, including institutional and geographic diversity with respect to the composition of the board as a whole.

Please be assured that everyone involved in the nomination process was appreciative of your interest and willingness to serve. We hope that you will consider a nomination in future years, and will continue your personal engagement with the ArchivesSpace community in other ways.

With best wishes,

(Name)
