Dear IAU Div D Members,

as you know, earlier this year we decided to have a 3-monthly exchange of information relevant to our Division in the form of an electronic
Bulletin.

The Bulletin includes brief messages, web links, and short references to matters that may be relevant to the activities of Div D Members. These could be, e.g., communications about newly approved projects, missions, enterprises that may be of wide interest within the community; information on relevant meetings, workshops, conferences; news about members who moved institutions, changed affiliations, or, sadly, passed away.

The first 2 Bulletins were issued on April 1st and July 1st, 2014, and are now stored in the Div D page maintained by our President Diana Worrall (http://www.star.bris.ac.uk/IAU-DivisionD/newsletters.html). I would like to ask you all to send me by *Monday, Sep 22nd*, any pieces of news that you would like to appear in the third Bulletin. I will collect them and simply format them in a text message that will be sent to the Division mailing list on October 1st. Thank you in advance for your inputs and best regards.

Elena Pian
Secretary of IAU Div D Steering Committee
