Governance Committee Information
Winter 2004

We hope everyone is well and warm. We hope that this is a good year for us all.

Current members of the committee include Barb Halbrook (WU Becker Library), Mary Krieger (SLU Health Sciences Center Library) and John Chesmewleski (VA Medical Center, Jefferson Barracks). If you are interested, we'd love to have other members join the committee.

We have solicited comments from the 2003/2004 SLML Board of Directors (and 2002/2003) in regard to what parts of the SLML Bylaws need change in order to support the goals of the new Strategic Plan, approved and adopted 2002/2003. We are reviewing these suggestions and will be meeting virtually in January. We hope to be able to recommend the newly rewritten Bylaws to the Board at their spring meeting. The full membership will have an opportunity to see the revisions and vote on their adoption at the June Annual Business Meeting.

After the Bylaws revisions are adopted, the Governance Committee will address the changes to the SLML Procedure Manual in support of the Bylaws and Strategic Plan.
