Composition

91´«Ã½

The Liaisons were a loosely organized group, reporting to and coordinated by the Networking Director. Also, in the past, the NMRT groups of state 91´«Ã½ chapters sent representatives to NMRT, called the Affiliates Council. To revitalize these groups, a Liaison Coordination and Support Ad Hoc Committee was appointed in 2002-2003 to investigate the possibility of creating a standing committee for liaisons and to propose a plan to establish the NMRT Liaison Program. The Executive Board decided during Midwinter 2003 that a separate committee should reevaluate the Affiliates Program.

Major Responsibilities

91´«Ã½

  • Recruit NMRT members to serve as liaisons to other 91´«Ã½ divisions, round tables, and units as well as other library associated organizations (ex. State associations).
  • Committee members should be assigned an equal number of units whose liaisons they will coordinate.
  • Provide best practices and strategies for effective liaison activities.
  • Serve as a contact person for liaisons.
