1. Review of CNAC Terms of Reference
Susan Routlifffe attended the CNAC meeting to review the committee’s terms of reference. She indicated that CNAC should only expect proposals for assessment projects for which no specific unit in the library has responsibility, i.e. things that
may cross lines between 2 departments.
Susan suggested that CNAC maintain a complete repository for all projects undertaken by library staff, regardless of whether they were approved by CNAC originally or not.
An example of an assessment project that CNAC would take on could be an evaluation of user needs/satisfaction with the library webpages. CNAC would then take any suggested changes to the respective departments.
2. Approval of minutes of last meeting
The minutes of the last meeting were approved as written.
