The ILL Committee was given the task from the executive committee of determing criteria for an institution to qualify as an automatic stop on the shuttle's schedule.
Parking is a severe problem at U.Mass.
Anna Maria requested that they would like to become an automatic stop on the shuttle's route because their materials can sit for days before being picked up. Sister Irene generated individual statistics for total shuttle pickups over the last 5 years for each member institution. She created a chart showing all institution's pickups in relation to each other over the same time period. Anna Maria's statistics have increased significantly while those of U. Mass. have decreased. It was decided that the criteria for being an automatic stop on the shuttle's schedule should be volume of pickups and deliveries.
