Steering Committee Minutes November 10

1) Technical Infrastructure Committee update
Looking at Newspaper Request for Information and will soon establish a Newspaper Committee. Once the committee is formed will start contacting vendors.

2) Staff Development Committee update
Reviewed survey results from the Technical Services Workshop. Part of the feedback was requests to have groups meet regularly and stay in communication.
The Committee funded two requests for money to go to conferences. A small amount to a student who did a poster on one collection and larger amount to staff members presenting on the entire NGL project at the HASTAC Conference.
