Library Administrative Group

(Previously Leaders Group, 2004-2005)

reflector: liblag note

The Library Administrative Group (previously the Leaders Group) was created by C-Team to support the Libraries' ability to look at organization-wide issues. In December 2003 the group suggested four arenas of activity: serving as a sounding board, providing input from the Libraries' teams and groups, communicating information to teams and groups, and providing input for decision-making and planning. The role of the Library Administrative Group continues to evolve. To provide further clarity to the general roles identified by the group, C-Team expects the Library Administrative Group to foster improved communication by allowing the development of shared understanding of specific decisions. The Library Administrative Group functions as an adjunct to communication from Directors to divisions. While it does not usually make decisions as a body, the Library Administrative Group provides a mechanism for LEC to develop ways to get help in decision-making processes.

Meeting Guidelines

Updated: January 28, 2008
  • A Meetings schedule for the next period is created at the last scheduled meeting of the semester and is posted on the LAG web page.
  • Beginning in January 2008, a LAG steering committee has been formed. The group will take responsibility for identifying topics for discussion and managing the facilitation of them. At the end of this academic year, LAG will evaluate how this process has worked and whether we have been able to improve our effectiveness in tackling important issues. The roles of Notetaker and Timekeeper for each meeting will continue to be assigned alphabetically. Members of the LAG steering committee and the LAG Webmaster are exempt from the roles of Notetaker and Timekeeper.
  • If a member is assigned a task (Notetaker, Timekeeper) and cannot attend the meeting, it is his/her responsibility to find a replacement and notify the group in advance.
  • The Facilitator (LAG steering committee) will ask for added agenda items at least one week before the meeting.
  • The final agenda will be distributed at least one business day before the meeting. If there is no agenda, the Facilitator (LAG steering committee) will cancel the meeting at least one business day prior to the meeting.
  • The Facilitator (LAG steering committee) will provide a LAG Sign-In sheet available from the LAG web page.
  • All members are expected to attend meetings and to be prepared if there is any prework.
  • Members should notify the Facilitator (LAG steering committee) if they cannot attend.
  • The meeting will proceed if there is a quorum of 50%. (membership= 40+, quorum=20+ members).
  • The group will use good judgment as well in determining whether sufficient or necessary members are present to make any particular decision on the agenda.
  • The agenda for the next meeting will be planned at the end of each meeting.
  • Within one week of the meeting date, the Notetaker will make every attempt to complete the minutes and send to the group for review. The group will have 3 business days to review and make comments.
  • The Notetaker will then send the final minutes to the LAG webmaster (Denise Wright) to put on the web page and send to library staff.
