We've met twice, with the next meeting scheduled for January. We've solicited job descriptions from the law library community, and are in the process of reviewing and grouping the various tasks. We hope to determine which tasks belong to a particular job, and the salary range a person doing that job should be paid. Someone writing a new job description would pick and choose from the lists, selecting only those tasks for which the new employee would be responsible. Our discussions often concern sensitive materials, and all information remains private.
All material given to the committee is considered to be sensitive, and remains unacknowledged.
Any borrowed language in our finished product will be unidentifiable. The committee hopes that we'll finally ascertain what we actually do in all of our libraries, and identify the differences that library type and size makes. It is hoped that the finished product will be useful to our library community as well as to the Human Resources Department in our institutions. All rights reserved.
