**Goals,
Objectives, Projects completed (including, but not limited to, any procedures,
tip sheets, checklists, etc. created during the reporting year):
**Action
Items/Issues To Be Resolved – What plans/projects remain which will be carried
over or postponed until next year? Have there been any substantial changes in
plans requiring a reconsideration or cancellation of projects? Information
regarding such will be helpful for future chairs and planners.
§
Significant changes may be necessary for the move to the online
version. A template that
conforms to ALA web site standards will need to be created an adopted so that Footnotes
can reside permanently on ALA servers rather than on member servers.
§
Delivery mechanisms need to be confirmed with the ALA printing
office. Notice should be
sent to existing members, either via the next paper issue, or via NMRT-L, or
both, to alert members to the necessity of keeping their email addresses up to
date with ALA.
§ An attempt should be made to get the Archives committee to make Footnotes its next project. Currently, back issues of Footnotes reside with the committee chair, risking loss as back issues are mailed around every year when the chair changes. This is also important because current issues will be going online now, and members will wonder about accessing older issues online as well. After the questions that have arisen from the move to the online version have been addressed, the Archives committee should be consulted about possible scanning all the old paper versions of Footnotes and making them available online.
