  2. The minutes were approved with minor corrections.

  3. Roving Reference Pilot Project
    A draft of the reference pilot project document was reviewed and changes were made. Susan Routliffe will send the revised document to ISR staff as well as to those who serve on the information desks. This project is on the agenda for October 6th ISR meeting. Susan Moskal volunteered to introduce the topic at the ISR meeting.
    The statistics form prepared by Maureen was also reviewed. Doug will revise the form to incorporate the suggestions made. It was suggested that the statistics form be pre-tested to ensure that we are collecting valid and useful statistics. The comments/notes section on the form will be used by the rover to make note of issues that will require follow-up e.g. falling links.
    During the pilot, Susan Moskal, Doug Morton, Jackie Stapleton, Maureen McCormack and Shabiran Rahman would serve as resource persons. Maureen will look into adjusting the desk schedule to take care of situations where individuals are not able to participate in the pilot.

  4. Systems/ISR Relationship Report
    Maureen gave an update on the work done so far. All requests from ISR will continue to go through Maureen and Doug, including those related to LT3. Maureen will send a copy of the report to ISR members to discuss at the October 6th ISR meeting.

  5. Other Business
    Providing access to e-mail on public workstations will be added to the list of topics to be discussed by ISMC
