Board Meeting Minutes

Monday, December 10, 2001 
Bungalow Wine Bar & Café

Present:  Julie Cook, Dawn Duddleson, Sue Eipert, Toni Emerson, Kim Emmons, Conrad Kartanas, Chris Mulready, Jean Pasche, Jean Sansobrino, Nola Sterling, Sharon Tang, Barbara Wetzel, Becky Withington

The meeting was called to order at 5:30 PM.

Minutes Approval and Confirmation of Email Board Votes
The minutes for the October 9, 2001 Board Meeting were approved. The email vote concerning a $500 travel stipend each in order for Chris Mulready (President) and Becky Withington (President-elect) to attend the SLA Mid-Winter Leadership Development Institute in Chicago passed unanimously and was confirmed.

Archiving Website
Jean Pasche discussed various issues concerning the archiving of the Chapter website. Karen Buxton is handling the archiving of material such as the Interface, minutes, annual report, and leadership roster on the Chapter website. The staff at Association Headquarters is archiving Chapter websites, but there is concern as to how accessible those archives will be. Sue Eipert will continue to burn CD's of our website for the ongoing use of Chapter members who may need immediate access to earlier versions of the site. The CD will not become part of the official archives, and will instead stay with the Chapter Webmaster.

Miscellaneous
Becky Withington is working on a reciprocal arrangement with ASIST whereby members of ASIST and PNW/SLA could attend each other's meetings at member rates. Becky will pursue this idea with other local organizations as well. Chris Mulready asked that we clarify the definition of "student" for chapter meetings. The Board agreed that we meant someone currently enrolled in an institute of higher education. It was noted that the Chapter membership list is updated regularly by Headquarters and the current list is available from them in ASCII format. Becky noted that the vendors on our website are expiring in January. They can renew their listings for $100.00, and vendors who sponsor a meeting will be listed as well.

The meeting was adjourned at 6:00 PM.
