Communications Strategies Working Group	Mike Gorrell	Updates Based on the Community Council Calendar we decided to focus on updating the website to support the upcoming Membership Drive. Reviewed website and are proposing an updated structure - see this document new structure is outlined - done by Rachel and Mike comments / questions? Rachel announces some resources to help with the work in January 2022 Mike is volunteering and asking for more participants, e.g. Jesse/Roadmap Group, ... present new structure to PC as well Who is presented on the website? listed live institutions, FOLIO members are reviewed, vendors need to be reviewed as well - we need to find a process here idea: list service providers with a description of their services and their regional and language support - link the pages Also identified some writers for certain pages Rachel Fadlon is looking to reserve time with the Web team at EBSCO that has maintained the website. Also identifying the best way/place to collect new copy for the website
Membership drive	Mike Gorrell	We need a membership drive to kick off in early 2022. What steps do we need to take to get this underway, and who will volunteer to drive this? Request for volunteers for this group: Boaz (lead), Harry, Paula, Dracine Paula: please consider the real costs of FOLIO - right now, our budget is healthy, because we just pay the absolute basic costs - it is not enough to pay for any other resources we might want to hire Action item: find more volunteers - in PC, in SIG's Dracine: define process and take action to recruit PO's, conveners, developers and any other resources we need Paula: consider ongoing implementation processes, that pulls resources back into institutions with no option to hire new people to contribute to FOLIO Alternative: shall the whole CC be part in this process as "working group"? e.g. "people power campain" Action item: reserve a window of time in each window to let the whole CC participate - small group for prep and follow up work!
Agenda Planning Group	Mike Gorrell	In discussions with FOLIO Officials we wondered if it made sense to create an "Agenda Planning Group" for Community Council. The Product Council has this... the Tech Council just decided it wasn't necessary. We could use the off week to get together to plan the agenda if there was interest.
Internal Meeting January 10, 2022	Mike Gorrell	I would like to propose an Internal meeting (CC Members only) on January 10th to go through the following agenda: Fiscal budgeting details and status, including AWS costs and staffing costs/projections CC 6 Month Retrospective How have we done? Are all members engaged? How should we modify our operation?
