Restructuring of Team

• Comments:
  • Its not changing a lot, but in some ways it is
  • Like emphasis on collaboration
  • Gets Resource Sharing across ILS platforms – consortial resources that are shareable
  • 1^st paragraph – shorter description, concise, makes it less specific & more flexible
• Changes to the description need to be made by October 16^th (Can confirm at next meeting, which is the last meeting before the forum)

Old Business

• Fall Forum on October 19^th
  • Not getting a rousing response from people
  • Only 20 people + 6 CARLI staff/team members registered
  • Discussion about canceling meeting and doing a webinar instead
  • Highest interest topics from the survey are: (1)  Interlibrary relations & fines/realistic  expectations for lost/damaged books (2) Interlibrary Loaning Electronic Resources (3) Training and Customer Service for student workers
  • Decided: cancel & reschedule – November 15^th, will probably only be 1 ½ hours
  • Discussion ensued regarding logistics.  It was determined that small group chat rooms were not a possibility and that the conversation would continue over email.  It was decided that there would be two webinars – 10-11:30am and 1-2:30pm and that it will be recorded so that people who can’t make it can listen later.  We will re-advertise and re-send out the survey.  Discussion ended with Amanda agreeing to do research about how to do a webinar on what to do with lost/damaged books.  She will present at the November 1^st meeting.
    ​Discussion about whether webinar will be Voice-Over IP or Phone-in.  The presenter will have to have a headset and Lorna will set up Adobe Presenter at the next meeting.
• White Paper – Amanda
  Still working on compiling & summarizing data, will get items out to everyone in next week

New Business

• Replace Dan on committee
  • Lorna to look @ list of volunteers & bring in a person who didn’t get on another committee
  • After discussion, it was decided that we won’t bring anyone in before the committee restructures because it was Dan’s last year.
• Debbie will be working on Shelflister 3.0
• Janelle sent mobile app to Resource Sharing team.
