Ideas

  1. Office hours zoom for anyone at UC to ask a question; answer questions submitted earlier

Queue (no date assigned)

  • Need reassurance all areas of libraries will have a voice and it's up to the SILS campus representatives in the cohort to make sure broad consultation across disciplines happens at their campus (law, med, special collections, etc). Message: Empower/trust the SILS teams to manage decisions. Your campus will have representation.
