- Committee chairs may schedule and convene synchronous meetings at their discretion, based on the business needs of the committee.
- Historically, standing committees met synchronously twice a year: In January/February and in June/July (around the time of the ALA Annual Conference). In the present day, SCs may meet via Zoom at a frequency and schedule that aligns with their business needs. Additionally, SCs may meet in person at ALA Annual Conferences if they so choose.
- Historically, standing committee chairs have attended the Operations Committee (OpCo) meetings each may. PCC has subsidized the attendance of SC chairs. If a SC has co-chairs, the co-chairs may alternate use of the funding or may split the funding.
- Committee chairs may utilize various communication mechanisms for internal committee business at their discretion.
- Working documents of the committee should be stored on Google Drive, within the PoCo folder hierarchy.
- Editing permissions for each document may be restricted to current committee members as needed.
- When preparing the charge for a new task group that will report to their committee, the Chair should use the Charge Template and Transmittal & Tracking Sheet.
- Please share charge and transmittal sheet documents with current PoCo Chair (i.e., assign "Editor" role in Google docs) at the time of document creation
- When an interim or final report of a task group that reports to your committee is ready for PoCo review, submit it to the PoCo Chair.
- Please ensure that recommendations and/or prompt questions are as specific and clear as possible in order to generate useful discussion and feedback. The PoCo Chair can help you with this as needed.
- The PoCo Chair will clone a copy of the report for the purposes of PoCo review. PoCo will add comments which you may be called to resolve if possible.
- You may be asked to present the report at a PoCo meeting and lead discussion there.
