[SWANboard] SWAN Board 4/15/16 Meeting Packet Posted!

SWAN Board Members: The Friday 4/15 meeting packet is now available for you: https://support.swanlibraries.net/sites/default/files/meeting/2016-04-15/pa… The meeting packet is only a modest 49 pages long this time! We will be continuing our discussion on futures staffing and facilities, reviewing budget scenarios for both, and getting an update on the RAILS LLSAP budget too. We are hopeful to wrap the meeting by lunch but I can certainly order food if the meeting gets lengthy. Also, in regards to the Action Item 7, SWAN Bylaws, Sheila has shared her thoughts below for the potential revisions that we may want to incorporate: Article 3 Section 2. or Assistant Administrators (only if Aaron likes this idea) Section 4. Delete 2nd sentence OR members may serve as many terms as they are elected. Section. 11 If a Board member vacates office and there are two years or more left on the term, a special elections will be held. If there is one year or less Article 4 Section 2 Delete Each officer may service in the same office three consecutive years. How can we add electronic voting? It needs to be a quorum. I think people need to come to the meeting to me it sounds like a way for someone to lobby for votes promising anonymity.
