First Meeting Notes 4/16/2009

Good morning! Now that I've (seemingly) fixed the template, I thought I'd post my notes from our meeting yesterday. (I will be oh-so-brief.)

• Misson Statement: We will have a draft of our mission statement on Friday, April 24th (that's week folks). A draft will be posted here, on this mighty blog, and all are asked to comment here as well.
• Keynote Speakers: Each cmte member was asked to research a possible Keynote speaker (choices were: Peter Hernon--Jane, Stanley Wilder--Brian, Jeff Hornell--Danielle, Loriene Roy--Sara, Rachel Gordon--Joseph). When finished, they are to post the bio here as well. Deadline May 1.
  
• Breakouts and Themes: Deadline for the themes for breakouts is May 1st. Brian to ask Lisa Finder if posters could be published in ULJ
  
• Online Participation: Sara and Joe to investigate podcasting and/or videocasting the event.
  
• Facilities & Food: Jane will post the food menu here next week.
• Vendor Support: Jane to email Brian a letter and make up a list of possible choices (Ebsco, Springer, ExLibris, etc).
• Web Site: I will have this completed by August 1st.
• Registration and Fees: $30.00 (roughly).
