Hello SWAN Board,
I just wanted to pass along some information that I received from Anne Slaughter regarding the LLSAP meeting on the 20th. I will be having a meeting with her next Monday to discuss further, as well. Here is the information that she provided me via email today, about the meeting and clarifications on what is being covered.
"I don't believe there is any need for the entire SWAN board to attend this meeting. However, it is an open meeting and they are welcome to attend if they wish. The Consortia Futures Subcommittee will be looking at a discussion draft of a revised LLSAP definition at their 1 pm meeting. It will not be on the agenda of the Consortia Committee meeting that morning. The document in the packet will include a revised LLSAP definition and likely a terminology note. It will NOT include any proposed changes to LLSAP service, staffing, etc. Jane is still finalizing the agenda and the packet will be sent out next week."
I will be happy to also send along the link with the packet and further info next week. Additionally, I am available to chat with any of you if you'd like to set up a call (evenings only for me this week), have specific things you'd like me to ask Anne on Monday during our meeting, etc.
Thanks!

Subject: [SWANboard] RAILS Consortia Committee & Futures Subcommittee on
7/20
SWAN Board Members:
There are two upcoming RAILS meetings being held Monday 7/20 that you should
make sure to attend either as a group or with your designated
representatives. This would mean Rich and Pierre. However, with changes
within the SWAN Board for its officers and committees obviously Rich and
Pierre will not be serving in this capacity.
I suggest coordinating with Brande since I will be on vacation for this
event. From what I see and have gotten wind of for the Futures Subcommittee,
this will entail a new definition of what it means to be an LLSAP. If those
of you needed to choose the morning meeting or the afternoon meeting, I
suggest the afternoon Futures Subcommittee which is going to be the more
weighty discussion that could quite easily define what SWAN will focus on as
an organization for the next 3 years.
Register in L2 or reply to this board email list. Brande can release emails
to the list while I am gone.
RAILS Consortia Committee (Rich): 9:30AM
http://www.librarylearning.info/events/?eventID=19081
RAILS Consortia Futures Subcommittee (Pierre): 1:00PM
http://www.librarylearning.info/events/?eventID=20311
Both Rich and Pierre should pay attention to documents shared for those
meetings and forward them on to the SWAN Board. Brande will also make sure
to acquire those meeting documents, and is planning on attending both
meetings.

Hello all,
Just wanted to send a quick email to let you know that we will NOT be in our usual conference room A tomorrow, but instead in B. A was already booked way back when I first made the meeting, but I neglected to mention this change in yesterday's email.
B is the other small conference room, off the side hallway a little further into the building.
See you tomorrow,

SWAN Board,
Attached is my self-evaluation for the SWAN Board meeting, Friday 6/19. This document updates the self-evaluation I completed in October last year, with the 2014 goals listed on the first page, but newer proposed goals for 2015-2016 at the end of the document.

Hi All,
Aaron's evaluation summary is attached. As we have done in the past, I am sharing it with him ahead of time in order for us to freely talk on Friday.
I want to thank all of you for getting back to me and for taking the time to complete the form. Have a great weekend and GO HAWKS!!

Hi All,
I would like to ask all of you to come to the meeting next Friday (6/19/15) with two candidates in mind for the soon to be open board seat.
While we had two candidates who ran in the last election, I would like to see if there are other strong candidates you might have in mind.
Thanks for your help.
