The directors (minus Dale Canelas as she is on vacation) discussed holding monthly all staff meetings with varying agendas. The Public Services Divisions has expressed an interest in holding additional Joint PS/TS meetings. TSSC members discussed various topics for these meetings.

2. Updates
-
Evaluations, Goals & Objectives, & annual assignment process – all
-
Martha Hruska confirmed with TSMG members that they were satisfied with the evaluative terms discussed in the April 29th Library Council meeting.
-
When finalized the Library 2005-2006 Goals & Objectives will be posted to the Library Bulletin Board. A suggestion has been made to separate the five main G&Os into forums each with a different volunteer moderator. It would also be desirable if the committee(s), team(s) and/or group(s) working on each G&O would post updates as progress is made.
-
-
Staff Work Task Survey – all
-
Bill Covey distributed the Staff Work Task Survey to Library Council members via email on Friday, May 6th. The survey should be distributed to staff in hardcopy form. As surveys are returned they should be bundled, labeled to identify the department, and sent to Bill Covey.
-
-
Budget status 04-05 – Michele Crump, all
-
OCO - $13,594.30
-
Cathy Mook will look at the possibility of returning some of Preservation’s budget.
-
The EBSCO invoice load occurred week before last. There have been some problems primarily when there is more than one copy of a title. Michele anticipates the Harrassowitz and the Swets Oxford invoices being loaded this summer. After these the YBP invoice will be loaded, followed by binding invoices.
-
-
Budget status 05-06
-
Dale Canelas would like to try to move some portion of funds spent on OCLC, some supplies, postage, and shelf-ready materials to expense without taking the funds out of the existing materials budget. Dale has asked for additional funding and if received the above scenario would not be problematic. If additional funding is not provided it is not clear how this will be accomplished.
-
There is a possibility that carry forward funds will not be handled the same this year as in previous years. There is a possibility that if the funds are not categorized as encumbered they may be taken by UF Administration.
