Hi guys, I updated one small typo on the first page. New link to updated packet is here (no need to reprint, if you already have): https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2015-11-20/pa… Thanks!

SWAN Board Members: The Friday 11/20 meeting packet is now available for you: https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2015-11-20/pa… The meeting packet is 136 pages long. We have a lot to cover this month, though most of it is review and approval or simply review (i.e. audit, some banking changes, 2016 calendar, and a few policies). Hopefully we will not run over into lunch, but if we do I will order us some. Hope to see you on Friday!

SWAN Board Personnel Committee 11/13/15 Agenda & Packet
by Brande Overbey 09 Nov '15

09 Nov '15

Hello SWAN Board/Personnel Committee: The Friday 11/13 Personnel Committee agenda and packet are now available for you: https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2015-11-13/pa… The packet is 78 pages long (74 of which are our Employee Handbook, which has a few redlined revisions up for review). This year's meeting will primarily be one of update and info rather than changes. We've made the handbook revisions to bring us in line with Management Association's legal recommendations, and I will present an employment law update and healthcare update for attendees. See some of you this Friday, and some of you next Friday!
