Newsletter Committee Minutes
June 25, 2005

Present: Terri Miller (Michigan State) Michael Brewer (Arizona), Diana Brooking (Washington), Jackie Byrd (Indiana), Jean Dickinson (Hoover), Inna Gudanets (Stanford), Sandra Levy (Chicago), Dan Pennell (Pittsburgh), Janice Pilch (Illinois), Andy Spencer (Wisconsin), Lydia Wasylenko (Syracuse), Gwido Zlatkes (Harvard)

• Minutes: Minutes of the virtual meeting held in advance of the Boston Midwinter 2005 conference were approved as submitted.

• Budget Report: Terri reported that the Newsletter budget continues to be in good shape. Plans to ship all newsletters via first class fell through because it was felt that this would be too expensive. Sending copies to active members via first class would not leave enough other copies to use bulk mail for the other copies. First class postage will be considered again for the next issue

• Upcoming Issue: Terri led a discussion on the 2006 Newsletter issue:
  • Libraries in Profile: Suggestions included Tulane and Louisiana State, as well as an ethnic library from Chicago.
  • Reassignments: No requests came for changes to current assignments.
  • Special Features: Dan Pennell agreed to write a biography of Murlin Croucher who is retiring this year.
  • Virtual Midwinter: It was decided that the committee would once again meet virtually for it's Midwinter meeting. Terri will take minutes for the meeting and forward them to the secretary.
