For a long period Karina McInnes was the well known IGS News editor. We all have to thank her for her great effort, her patience and her persistence that led to an informative newsletter for the IGS membership and was an advertisement to create new members. It is a honour for me to be appointed by the IGS council as her successor in this function. I know very well what the work associated with this job is and I will depend on assistance from you – the readers of this newsletter. The newsletter is for you and will only work if you deliver information on what's going on in your chapter, your area, your university, your office or your company. Please feel free to approach me, if you have any ideas for publication in IGS News. Actually we decided to continue the format of IGS News in the traditional way. But new technologies need smooth changes that will be offered in the following issues. The main goal will be to increase the benefit for the readers, especially to bring most of the actual information to your finger tip. The newsletter is published as PDF-file and this offers the possibility of linking directly to further and more detailed information. This idea was already used and is extended in this issue to the IGS Corporate Members list. Those links lead to the corresponding entry on the IGS webpage, from where you will be led to the home page of the company itself. To get most benefit for the corporate member and the reader, the corporate pages on the IGS webpage should be carefully checked by the corporate members. The same linkable info will be realized with the official IGS journals. In the past only the info about the journal itself was published. We will provide the content of the actual issues with the link to the abstract. Please remember: the access to these journals is free for members. If the link does not work smoothly, please check with IGS Secretariat or become a member of IGS! In the past some persons were appointed as correspondents for
IGS News. With the increase of chapters that cover most of the areas
worldwide, it seems reasonable to
change the system and ask each
chapter to nominate a member for
this task. We hope to insure by this
a more effective and direct communication.
A special letter to the
chapters will be sent soon by the
IGS secretariat.
I know it is a great challenge for me
to keep the IGS News alive and of
benefit for you as well as Karina did
for such a long period. I am looking
forward to your cooperation, support
and criticism – then we (myself, you
and first of all IGS) will have success.

The newsletter began not quite 2 years after the creation of the IGS in June 1985. The first editor was Peter M. Jarrett, Civil Eng. Prof. at RMC. The second issue would be printed in Jan 1986. In June 1986 (vol.2 no.1), would be published with a new Editor Kerry Rowe. Kerry worked diligently on the publication until March of 1990 (vol.6 no.1). His last issue as editor was circulated to a growing IGS membership, numbering 1000! The torch was then passed to Richard Bathurst, IGS Current Past President. Richard started as Editor July 1990, (vol.6, no.2) Richard continued as editor through July 1994, (vol.10, no.2). David Elton began as Editor, Nov 1994, (vol.10, no.3) and concluded his tenure with the July 1999 issue (vol.15, no.2). Since that time Karina McInnis has been the IGS News Editor. |
