Employee Recognition Committee Meeting
June 4, 2007
3:15-4:15pm
Library East Conference Room
Minutes
Present: Betsy Simpson, Brian Keith, Laurie Brennan, Dina Benson, Brett Diaz, Barbara Hood. Peter McKay
There were three matters discussed.
-
Service Pin Distribution.
Service pins are distributed throughout the year as people reach 5-year, 10-year, etc. milestones. The service is University service not just Library service. Brian suggested we could selectively recognize individuals who have completed long years of service (e.g. 20-years) at the Annual Convocation. A poster could be displayed listing the names of all recipients during the past year.
- Awards
The Committee decided to create a pilot program consisting of 5 Awards (subject to Library Council approval):
- Customer Service
- Behind-the-Scenes
- Innovation
- Outreach
- Instruction and Training
Anyone can nominate someone (including self-nominations) by submitting a form that we will design. The Employee Recognition Committee (ERC) will vote on the awards which will be given at the Annual Convocation. ERC will develop criteria for evaluating the nominations.
Note: We decided to limit the initial awards to five in order to keep the presentations brief and to see how well it works.
- Best Practices Publication
Steve Carrico will order this publication.
Recorder Extraordinaire: Peter McKay
