1. Approval of the minutes

The November 25, 2003 minutes were approved.

 

2. Question Time

Beth Woodard had a meeting with the Library Senate Committee about the 5-year review process for the University Librarian. Beth re-wrote the motion of the Executive Committee regarding the procedures. After discussion with the Committee a few changes will be made and the motion will be presented at the next Library Faculty meeting.

 

The Committee discussed the Staffing Chronology report. It hasn’t been updated on the web since 2001. Paula will talk with Kim and Donna about the placement of these kinds of things on the web and updating the pages and links.

 

The question of the criteria for evaluating librarianship was raised. It had come up at an FRC meeting. Apparently, not all Divisions were informed about the subject. It was suggested that this might be a topic for a future faculty meeting agenda.

 

3. Review of Faculty position requests

The Committee finished reviewing the requests and ranked the positions according to which ones would be filled first.

 

4. Strategic Planning Charge

The Committee approved the charge.
