Elections-group reps need to start soliciting names for the upcoming

The following were discussed as selling points to get people to serve: getting to meet other library people, be "in" on what's going on in the library, new dean has strong interest in classified staff, something different to do.

CCEB charges: There are no specific charges unless set by the board at
the beginning of each term.

CC information for new hires: in the short term, a bookmark will be designed that contains classified conference information, including website address. Long term solution might be to revive the orientation committee.Old material in the CCEB folder: a folder has been passed down to each
new secretary; most of the material will need to be sent to Archives.
