WEB PAGE
We reviewed the progress of the page and the unassigned portions. Assignments were made for Quiet Study Places in the Libraries - MdP; My paper is due tomorrow! Frequently asked student questions - e-mail to all-lib or ps-lib for their favorite faqs.MESSAGE FOR TALK TO UA COUNCIL
We talked about developing a communications strategy to discuss with the Council, and about the News we would like to deliver. Nina then summed it all up as follows: In the short-term, there are some big things we want you to know, i.e., 3rd Barton, the new Web site, Pay-4-Print, [renovation plans?]. In the long term, we want to improve our ability to talk to you. More importantly, how can we best learn from you what your concerns are?TOPOGRAPHY
Chris raised the question, are we getting the lay of the land for undergraduates? Do we understand the organizational structure for undergraduates, and their own organizations and groups? Do we have information to communicate within the libraries? [Refer to "define desired knowledge" under project management on our work chart.] For future discussion.CONTACTS
A suggestion was made to ask the undergraduates on the Faculty Committee for the Library System to meet with us.NEXT MEETINGS
We decided to meet March 1 on our regular biweekly schedule and to assess from meeting to meeting whether and when we might need to reduce the number of meetings, for the sanity of those working on 3rd Barton. Other user groups are reducing their schedules.
