Editor's Summary As the president of the newly renamed Association for Information Science & Technology, Dillon recognizes critical behind‐the‐scenes work being done to improve ASIS&T from the inside out. The Task Force on Web Presence will develop a plan to enhance internal communications and to keep information current and easy to find. Developing a moderated discussion forum on information will help solidify the organization's position as a thought leader. An information resource on what information professionals do will help define the field for public viewers and solicit thoughts on careers and opportunities. Recognizing the value of volunteer involvement, input and assistance, Dillon invites all ASIS&T members to participate actively at this turning point for the global association.
