TO: Special Libraries Association

It is a pleasure to extend my congratulations as you celebrate your centennial.

Over the past 100 years, you have become the foremost association for information professionals throughout the world. By providing education, advocacy and networking, you empower your members and the organizations they serve to make informed decisions. These corporate academic and government groups thrive because of you hard work, and I commend your dedication to excellence.

Thank you for your fantastic contributions to our Golden State. Your California members proudly serve many of our institutions and businesses, and I applaud them for helping others to achieve their goals and improve the state we call home.

On behalf of all Californians, I send my very best wishes for a memorable observance and every future success.

Sincerely,

Arnold Schwarzenegger
