Agenda

Meeting notes--Tracy

• Annex availability update (Peg)
• Dreamweaver training and software upgrades
• Announcements and updates from the libraries

1) Annex space

For sake of clarity, the current Annex is referred to as the “Annex,” and the new building is referred to as the “Archives Annex.”

The Annex will be full at the end of August, 2008. Regardless of the need, no materials will be accepted for storage in the Annex after August, 2008. The Archives Annex will be ready to receive materials approximately March, 2009. Starting in March, 2009, transfers to the Annex resume. Assuming that $10,000 of reassessment money is granted to the Annex in 2009, the Annex will have seven months of growth space. Assuming additional grants of reassessment money for shelving for the Annex, transfers to the Annex will continue beyond the initial 7 month period.

2) Dreamweaver training

Training will take place during spring break, and trainers will use the latest version (CS3). Directors should take note that not all attendees of the training may have the latest version. The cost to upgrade is approximately $100. LITS has bought 17 copies of the latest version, and these will be installed in the electronic classroom for the duration of the training. After the training, they will be uninstalled, and 17 licenses will be available for the library staff.
