Agenda items & Notes on Decisions, Actions, and Responsibilities
- CELA move-in dates (varied…beginning in late March–through May). Valerie will remind each office down there to invite library staff down for a “get to know you” visit.
- Faculty Subscription Review and recurring costs budget–ongoing project, cancellations are real and necessary if we are to live within our FY23 budget. Thank you for working with your faculty on this sad task.
- Strategic directions roll out (final draft is dated March 1st). Valerie will do a little presentation on it at upcoming PanLibrary Forum, launching it into the various departments and units for their exegesis and enlivening of it as they think about goals and projects for the summer and coming academic year.
