Policies and Procedures
Much thanks to Donna Fiebelkorn and her sub-committee for the work they did in developing a draft document that could be brought before the membership for a vote (twice).
Thank
you too, to the membership, who contributed thoughtfully and engaged
in the adoption process. I hope all can agree that the document, purposefully
not called "by-laws", respects the informality
of the group and the primary mission of information-sharing and dissemination
between member institutions.
