  1. Agenda Accepted.

  2. Some changes were made to the Terms of Reference Document. Final version approved, and will be examined again at the next meeting.

  3. Analysis of the Report of the Information Needs of the University of Waterloo Academic Community.

    The Community Needs Process Group has been asked by the University Librarian to examine the Report thoroughly and recommend areas of enhancement and determine which areas need further analysis and study.

    The Chief Librarian would also like the Group to consider the Report for publication.

    After a preliminary examination the Group agreed on the following:

    1. The report is a thorough academic study and should remain as such.

    2. The next step for CNAG is to design a document for the various client groups based on the findings of the survey. This document(s) will be designed to attract the interest of the reader. The language and design will be user friendly with graphs, charts and other visual aids employed throughout the publication. Group members will first review the "Information Needs" report to break down the text into categories and subcategories appropriate for the new publication.
