Discussion about LAUC-Executive's meeting with EVC Ilene Nagel. We should not discuss the $600,000.00 that the chancellor is holding back for the new University Librarian at this point.

Ron Tobin announced to staff that $350,000.00 was coming to the library for technology. He would like to use the money to create an electronic kiosk or a video tour of the library. LAUC-Executive should meet with Ron Tobin & the Library Executive Committee about this money & discuss consideration of LAUC's proposal from last year, in which librarians compiled a list of technology needs.

LAUC-Exec should also pursue establishing a meeting with the Library Executive Committee on a regular basis.
