Minutes
October 12, 2000
- Rotation of Minute Taking - We agreed to rotate taking minutes in alphabetical order. Mary Scott volunteered for this meeting. The minute taker for the next meeting (going alphabetically from Scott) will be Susan Wyngaard.
- Binding - Wes Boomgaarden handed out some background information on binding costs and budget and some statistics. 2/3 of the binding done is for collections outside Main Library - probably related to the percentage of the collection that is outside Main Library. There was discussion about duplicate subscriptions - should we keep and bind duplicate runs of a title; e-journals - should we continue binding these titles? Of the 3000+ titles in EJC we probably have 1500-2000 of them in paper.
- Duplicate policy - Carol Diedrichs will look for the existing policy about duplicate serials. Bruce Leach agreed to work with Carol to draft some talking points/issues for further discussion.
- Funding requests - We took a look at the existing requests and reviewed them for content. Carol will take the list of requests and recommend a set to be funded from the ones CAC approved that is within the budget and will preserve some funds for the second round. The third round will be eliminated and Carol will send a message to collection managers to that effect. [Note: subsequent to the meeting, the CAC approved a list of requests to be funded - will be available on the Technical Services web site under Collection Management.]
At the next meeting, the new requests and those not funded in the first round will be considered for funding.
- Next meeting: Nov. 9, 2000.
