**Activity in Current Reporting Period
a) Projects
completed (For example, any procedures, tip sheets, checklists, etc. created
during this period):
Planning
for the NMRT Booth at ALA Annual Conference began before midwinter conference.
Committee members indicated a preferred task and were organized into sub
groups. The
subgroups are: Gift baskets, surveys, display board, handouts, and volunteers. This
will take care of all our tasks to prepare and staff the booth in
b) Projects
in progress but not yet completed:
Maintain a committee presence on the NMRT website, particularly for communicating the work of the committee to all NMRT members and for recruiting volunteers for ALA Chicago. This should happen as we approach April and May.
Revise and update Booth procedures – this will also happen as we work through the procedures for setting up, staffing and taking down the booth.
Investigate purchase of a mobile, re-usable exhibit system (including furniture, signage, storage, and carpet) to replace the existing display board and annual furniture/carpet rental. Some preliminary research has been done on this, but will probably not be completed in this committee cycle.
**Action Items/Issues To Be
Resolved (What is left to do, based on your Planning Report?
Have there been any substantial changes in plans since then? What items, if
any, have been deferred until next year?):
More work on developing a more professional looking booth for NMRT.
