Hello all,
We just want to make sure that we will have a quorum for Friday - if you haven't done so already, could you please let me know whether or not you will be attending the meeting? We have heard from Stacy and Sheila so far.
Thank you,

SWAN Board Members:
The Friday 12/18 meeting packet is now available for you:
https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2015-12-18/pa…
The meeting packet is 65 pages long. A bulk of that is the first draft of our FY17 budget, and the contract for BLUECloud Visibility for your review. We do not plan to go into lunch for this meeting, as we also have a Network Administrator applicant interview set for 12:30 on Friday that Aaron and I must attend. Our apologies for the delay on this packet!
Hope to see you on Friday,
Brande Overbey

Hi guys,
We just wanted to send a quick email to let you know that our board packet next week will likely be a little later than we typically get it out to you. We had an all-day meeting at Morris Public Library today (RAILS Consortia Retreat), and Monday/Tuesday will also be quite busy for Aaron and me with our SWAN holiday party and some Network Admin interviews. We will have the packet out to you no later than Wednesday AM, but hopefully much earlier.
Take care and have a wonderful weekend!

Hi SWAN Board,
Attached is our proposed calendar of board events for 2016. For those of you unfamiliar with this document, this is what I'll be using to keep us on track with our agenda topics each month and with Aaron's and my administrative tasks (budget, audit, etc.). I've also converted the topics for COWs to SWANcoms, and noted the potential budget meeting that may need to be held in February. Anything else that I'm forgetting?
Thank you!

SWAN Board:
I neglected to include this introduction to SWAN's usability study within your board packet that I sent to the three companies we have proposals from. See attached PDF.

Subject: SWAN Board 11/20/15 Meeting Packet Posted!
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,
Rather than put this into the packet, I thought if you wanted to see more about the company Merge who submitted a proposal for our user experience study. See attached document.

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!
