Committee Reports
- Workshop Planning Committee
- Spring Workshop. Some concern has been expressed
about duplication of our workshop with the OCALD workshop.
The committee agreed to meet after the division meeting to
work on ways to differentiate the UCD workshop on the legal
issues of electronic databases from the OCALD
pre-conference.
- OLA Conference Planning
- Posters and Presentations. David Oberhelman
reported that there were 15 poster sessions and 13 paper
presentations. These will fit nicely into the time slots
that we have.
- Sessions. The "buried treasure" session
has been changed to a paper presentation. This presentation
will spotlight several collections. Jon is still working on
a commitment from the adaptive technology contacts.
- Nominating Committee
- Retha Robertson reported that she has a full slate of
candidates. Running for Vice Chair/Chair elect are Carolyn
Warmann and Ann Blakely. Running for secretary are Nancy
Jurney and Rhonda Harris Taylor.
- Electronic Communication Committee
- The minutes are being posted to the web site. Jon is
sending meeting notices and minutes to the OLA list.
Other Business
- Sites for upcoming meetings
- Next meeting is set for Tuesday, January 11 at 1:30 PM in
a yet to be determined metro OKC location. Watch your email
for the place. [The meeting date has been changed to January
18. - Woltz]
- College Preparation
- Sheila Johnson raised the idea of developing formal
relations with school library media specialists to help
prepare high school students for college success in areas of
research. Also with many libraries having high school
classes coming into the library, we need a common foundation
of instruction. This would help develop information literary
skills. The division took this under advisement for a future
meeting.
Meeting adjourned with no objection.
Respectfully submitted,
David A. Scott |
