Agenda
Approval/Adjustment
A report from CARL Executive was added to the
agenda by Judy Lee.
III. Minutes
October minutes were approved electronically and Duffy Tweedy posted them to the website.
A. SCIL Officers
Katy Farrell was elected Vice Chair. Emily Woolery was elected Secretary.
Lynn Lampert was re-elected program chairregistrar. Congratulations to all officers. They will begin their term in January
2005.
During the election membership verifications had to be
made. There are non SCIL members
on the listserv and a few voted.
Membership was verified and no non-member votes were counted. To avoid this situation in the future
SCIL will ask the CARL membership coordinator to send a list of all current
members prior to the election.
There was also a discussion on how SCIL could boost
membership. It was suggested that
we send a message to the CARL list promoting the benefits of SCIL just during
the CARL registration period. Judy
Lee will investigate when the next registration drive will be and Debbi Renfrow
will be responsible for sending out the message.

ACRL
Workshop
Melanie Remy passed out the ACRL workshop proposal. The group decided that it might be good
to start the program with a short introduction. Amy Wallace agreed to be the introductory speaker and will
pull on the talk that Paul Adalian gave at the CARL Pre-Cconference. The talk will focus on what should come
first instruction or space. A
suggestion was made to market the pre-conference on the ILI and Immersion
Listservs. The pre-conference sub
committee will meet after the SCIL workshop. Melanie Remy will email Margot Sutton at ACRL to see if she
can provide any additional details on the date, time, and format of the
workshop.
E.
LOEX
Update
Deb Moore spoke with Theresa Valko the coordinator for
LOEX. Theresa said that it would
be good to reserve the site two years in advance, which would mean SCIL would
have to secure the site in 2005.
LOEX will provide the deposit, all payments, and handle registration. SCIL handles local arrangements and
faculties. Deb also has a report from
the organizers of LOEX 2004 which will no doubt be of great help to SCIL. The total cost for meeting rooms,
meals, and breaks at LOEX 2004 was $35,000. The organizers of LOEX 2003 recommended the use of hotel
technology as opposed to bringing in your own technology. It was more expensive but worth
it. The report also has details on
the number and kinds of rooms/facilities needed (7 meeting rooms, 250
attendees). The conference runs
from Thursday evening to Saturday afternoon. LOEX 2005 is also giving one scholarship. There was agreement that SCIL would
like to provide at least one scholarship and maybe more if funds could be
raised through sponsorships. LOEX
2003 had co-chairs and nine other committee members. Volunteers were called for, and an official LOEX 2007
subcommittee will by formed at the January meeting.
A.
Spring
Program
Katy Farrell, incoming Vice Chair, will be responsible for
organizing the Spring Program. The
event is typically all day and focuses on one speaker and hands-on
activities. Themes were
brainstormed. Some possible themes
from the last meeting were distance learning/remote users, scholarship of
teaching and learning, grants, service learning. During the brainstorming the group focused in on remote
users. It was suggested that the
Spring Program continue to focus on cutting edge theories in education and not
just what is currently being done in libraries. Another suggestion was to focus the program on students by
having a student panel. At the end
of the brainstorm members were asked to send Katy speaker suggestions or bring
them to the next meeting.
B.
Report
from CARL
Judy Lee announced the results of the CARL election. SCIL member Lynn Lampert will be CSU
Director At Large and SCIL member Judy Lee will be UC Director at Large. Judy also reported that SCIL appeared
to be the largest CARL interest group noted in the CARL membership directorÕs
annual report.
VI. Round Robin
Katy Farrell reported that
instruction librarians in San Diego met in October to get to know each other
and do some networking. There was
representation from K-12, Community Colleges, California State Universities,
and UC San Diego. The group will
be setting up a listserv and hope to begin to meet on a more regular basis.
Dorothy
Potter announced that Pasadena City College had a job opening.
Chisa
Uyeki announced that she is pregnant.
The next meeting will be January 28, 2005 at Mesa Community
College in San Diego.
