[SWANboard] SWAN Bylaws Final Redline Doc & Memo

SWAN Board: The Bylaws Committee have completed their final review and updates to the redlined doc and are happy to share that with you today, for your final review and feedback due to us by Friday, July 14th. This will allow us time to discussion and incorporate your suggestions, but still get the revised doc to the membership in time for their 45 day review and then vote at the September Quarterly meeting. We have also attached a short memo draft to this document, which highlights the main changes that were made. We welcome any suggestions or input to this document as well. Also, please note that we have a number of "parking lot" items for discussion in future years for potential bylaws changes. We decided to leave these until after Strategic Planning and the addition of the New19, and include the following: * School libraries/linked to public * Joining Fee (board determines, membership determines, amounts?) * "Active Membership" when live and circulating, when to pay fees (i.e. New 19) * Quorum - Quarterly a meeting of the board? Of the membership? Let us know if you have any questions, Brande Overbey Operations Manager brande@swanlibraries.net<mailto:brande@swanlibraries.net> * (630)326-7104 *Please note my new email address, address and phone number* SWAN Library Services 800 Quail Ridge Drive, Westmont IL 60559 swanlibraries.net<https://www.swanlibraries.net/> * catalog.swanlibraries.net<https://catalog.swanlibraries.net/>
