Charge

Body to which the group reports:
CARLI Board of Directors

Scope of work:
The CARLI Public Services Working Group will advise the CARLI Board and staff on the consortial aspects of public service issues. The PSWG will identify issues of critical concern and make recommendations on how these issues may be addressed through continuing education, best practices, shared tools, etc.

Member appointment and terms:
In July 2006, PSWG members will be appointed for staggered terms of 1-3 years from a pool of volunteers and/or nominees, in order that a rotation system can be established whereby approximately a third of the group membership is appointed each year. Appointees after the first year will serve 3-year terms beginning on July 1. Each spring volunteers will be solicited for the expiring terms. The CARLI Executive Committee has the final responsibility for appointing PSWG members. In the case of mid-term vacancies, the PSWG will recommend candidates, and the CARLI Executive Committee will appoint new committee members to fill the remaining portion of the term.

Expected reporting frequency:
When necessary, the PSWG chair will report on committee plans and activities at the CARLI Board meetings. The PSWG chair or CARLI Office staff representative will report back to the committee on plans and activities discussed at the CARLI Board meetings. The Working Group’s chair will submit a written report of the group’s activities to the CARLI Board at the end of the fiscal year (June 30). Additional updates on activities may be requested by the CARLI Board or Executive Director throughout the year.

Coordination:
The chairs of the Collections Working Group, the E-Resources Working Group, the Preservation Working Group and the Public Services Working Group will meet, at least twice a year, to share what their groups are discussing, in order to reduce duplicative efforts and identify opportunities for collaboration

Timeline:
Not applicable

Staff or Board liaisons:
One CARLI Office staff representative will serve as the liaison to PSWG.

Tasks required on completion of work:
Recommendations for new or enhanced CARLI products, services and programs should be sent to the Products & Services Vetting Committee or the Program Planning Committee. The chair will forward other documents dealing with staffing, policy, and budget issues to the CARLI Board for review and approval.
