  • be specific about domains being discussed

    • Idea proposed at a past SILS OT SC meeting: create mini project team from SILS OT (2-3 people) whose members would share their results in next fiscal year

  • Shared Governance Task Force Ongoing, UCLAS-integrated SILS structure, work practices and charges

    • plan a lengthy discussion of representation?(advocacy/leadership/experts vs. comprehensive campus representation) at a future SILS OT meeting

    • background:

      • related to the question regarding term limits

      • other questions to guide this discussion:

        • if the work changed by having only experts on a team, how would it change?

        • how could non-expert representatives be used in other collective areas?

  • suggestions from SILS OT meeting on 8/7/24:

    • look at Alma/Primo VE Issues and Themes document

      • workstream improvement

    • Insufficient IZ/NZ integration

    • Insufficient support
