鈥淚t is with a heavy heart that we mourn the loss of Laura Chodos, former member of the Board of Regents.

She twice represented the state at White House Conferences on Libraries and Technology, and her work ultimately earned her a Lifetime Achievement Award from the New York State Archives Partnership Trust in 2018.
