SWAN Board 11/21/14 Meeting Packet Posted

13 Nov '14

SWAN Board Members: The Friday 11/21 meeting packet is now available for you: https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2014-11-21/pa… The meeting packet is 128 pages long. Included in the packet are audit results, SWAN handbook revisions, impact studies for potential new SWAN libraries, 2015 meeting calendars, and a slew of other things! Please review the handbook prior to the meeting - since it was already reviewed and edited by the Personnel Committee, we do not intend to review it page by page at the meeting. So please have notes of any pages you'd like reviewed in further depth. Please also review the 2015 meetings calendar prior to the meeting - please come with notes of any conflicts we will need to work out. For example, April will need some fine tuning, since go-live is April 14th! Also, attached to this email (cannot be included in the packet) are: * Aaron's Self-Evaluation Document * Compiled Evaluation results for Aaron from the Board Hopefully our meeting won't run too late into the evening! Lunch will be provided, and if we need it, I'll also get us some dinner. See you next Friday!

So, thus far for lunch I have a request for Sicilian-style cannoli, soup, grinders and hoagies, and cocktails. Should I also order surf & turf? It IS a long meeting...

Importance: High Hi SWAN Board, Just a friendly reminder that we do anticipate that our Friday, 11/21 Board meeting will be a very long one (probably, a majority of the day). We do plan to provide lunch - any preferences or special requests? Please be sure to not plan something in the afternoon if you can help it since we will be monopolizing your time that day! :) Our Board packet will be equally long, so we are working ahead and hope to get that finalized and out to you early - hopefully middle of next week if we are at all able to get it all done by then. See you on the 21st!
