NPC 2003 regional meetings program
- Roll of nominate group representatives, and attendance sheet of observers
All group nominated representatives attending these meetings must be a current financial member of ALIA. They may be a personal member or the designated representative of an institutional member.
- Election of one delegate to attend Canberra NPC
Nominations are to be made at the regional NPC meeting and a vote taken if there is more than one nomination. Only nominated group representatives are eligible for attendance at the Canberra NPC. The elected delegate is to report back to the region after the NPC.
- Celebrating success
Group delegates are asked to present a success story from their group. The idea is that these stories should contain an element of fun and give delegates a chance to perform. The meeting will need to select the most popular story, which will then be presented at the NPC in Canberra.
- Research exchange and partnership (REAP) initiative
We are hoping that groups via their nominated representative at the NPC regional meetings can provide ideas for research topics, and potential researchers and partnerships for this new ALIA initiative. [link]
- Continuing Professional Development
What are the priorities for ALIA-brokered training? What are the gaps between courses offered through partnerships, ALIA group-run CPD activities and ALIA conferences? What types of workshops/seminars are needed to fill the gaps? [link]
- Issues of critical importance
Identify major issues for the library and information services sector, and ALIA, over the next five years. This is a discussion item seeking the input, ideas, and views of ALIA members.
- ALIA Towards 2010 consultation draft
The Board of Directors is now seeking the advice and input of members on the ALIA Towards 2010 draft through the 2003 regional meetings and National Policy Congress. [link]
- Questions on notice
