LISA
Meeting held in Observatory Park in Denver, CO
Attending
the meeting: Lisa Cole, Amy Greenland, Noreen Schilling and Shannon
O’Grady
Lisa
Cole called the meeting to order.
Shannon
will revise the minutes from the Feb. 7, 2002 meeting so that they can be
posted on the LISA website.
Noreen
will write up the minutes from the last meeting on April 4, 2002 so that
they can be posted to the LISA website. (Shannon was not able to attend this
meeting).
The
treasurer Alyssa Ericksen was not at this meeting to give a report.
Roger
Greer made a monetary donation to LISA and it is unclear if he received a
letter of thanks from LISA. Shannon will ask Alyssa and verify if this was
done. If not, she will get
Mr.
Greer’s address and take care of this.
Amy
gave an update on the Internet committee.
Amy’s
Capstone project involves comparing the DU LISA site with other schools’.
Her project (being completed jointly with two other students) will look at,
among other factors, if student sites have a similar template to the parent
organization site. The project will explore what information should be on
the LIS site and what should be on the LISA site.
This
research may be beneficial to the program accreditation.
LISA
elections will be in August. To date, there have been no nominations. In an
effort to remedy this, Noreen will send out an email to encourage people to
run and faculty and alumni will be asked to encourage students.
Students
to work on the Internet committee will need to be recruited as well.
The
new secretary will be assigned the duty of list administrator for the
LISA-L. Shannon will write up the “how to” information.
CAL
conference—Sylvia Hal-Ellis will be working with the LISA to form a
committee to determine LISA’s participation in this conference. Noreen
will email Sylvia to establish a meeting date. Poster sessions are a
presentation type to consider. Amy may be doing a poster session on her
Capstone project.
Interview
skills for LIS students—Camilla Allaire has held seminars for students in
the past. This may be something to consider for next year. Camilla would be
a good person to have involved with the program.
Lisa
Cole adjourned the meeting.
LISA
picnic to follow.
