IUPUI University Libraries Faculty Organization

Minutes of April 19, 1999 Meeting – “DRAFT”

1:00-2:00 p.m., UL1116

Present: T. Daniels-Howell (president); S. Schlag (secretary); Crumrin, R.; Goodwin, V.; M. Wright; B. Burk; J. Baldwin; D. Lewis

Meeting was informally called to order at 1:05 p.m.

Discussion Topics:

· The Primary Peer Review committee is the body responsible for generating a plan to implement “Faculty and Librarian Review and Enhancement at IUPUI.” Discussion of this plan by library faculty is crucial, since it will define “satisfactory” and “not satisfactory” performance by tenured librarians; and will delineate specific review procedures at the unit (University Library) level. Deadline for implementation of the plan is June 1999. ACTION: Jim Baldwin will send a draft plan ASAP to library faculty for review; discussion and resolution of plan will take place May 25.

· M. Wright noted that the Research Leave Committee (M. Wright, M.B. Minick, and S. Staum-Kuniej) reviewed and approved three research leaves for the calendar year 1998: M. Stanley, D. Lewis, and S. Schmidt.

· ACTION: R. Crumrin (Nominating Committee) will present a slate of candidates to ULFO at least a week before the May 25 election.
