Other ad hoc committees or task forces are appointed for particular tasks, such as the writing of core reference lists and minimum reference standards.
Concerns relate to provision of reference and continuing education and minimum reference standards.
Responsibilities may include, but are not limited to, advice on priorities of service, implementation of standards, needs assessments of member libraries, establishment of ad hoc committees, reference policies or evaluation of services. Committee members are appointed by the SLS Reference Service Manager, each representing a particular segment of SLS membership, and are committed to speak for those they represent. Each member, therefore, accepts responsibility for communicating with colleagues and gathering information that will assist the committee in reaching an informed consensus. Meetings are held quarterly, usually on the third Wednesdays of February, May, August, and November. To view the minutes for a meeting, click on the date.
