Fixing meeting invitation

@Simeon Warner

Need to replace @Mike Gorrell with @Christopher Spaldingfor these meetings

ACTION - @Alexis Manheim to update invitations - DONE

 

TC issues with organizational change

@Jenn Colt @Craig McNally

Jason Root is moving from TAMU to Index Data. This transition would change representation to have two Index Data staff (other is Jakub). Governance procedure suggests that the seat could go to the next highest vote-getter, but there was none. Can also co-opt.

AGREEMENT

  • Let Index Data choose which rep to keep

  • TC to solicit expressions of interest then appoint

Discussion of governance document. Sense that we need some more clarity. Also CC number of members is wrong at the bottom of the document. Should likely have some process for broad input of potential changes.

ACTION - Simeon to raise this with CC - Added to https://folio-org.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AoCkHQ

 

Member meetings

@Alexis Manheim

Some people mentioned that they did not know about the member meeting, because emails (to folio-members list) went to the wrong people. How would we more reliably communicate with interested people at member institutions? Should discuss on the officers call with @Kemner-Heek, Kirstin who maintains this list – the list might not change but we might need to coordinate with any other

  • Could create a new slack channel

  • Could ask for additional institutional contact or 2 for folks interested in membership ideas (which might then mean a separate list)

  • Should there be engagement from the councils other than CC? If only reason to get involvement is membership then mainly CC, but should have other council members involved at least

  • ACTION - Discuss on the officers' call
