    \n
  1. Approval of Minutes (B. Boling)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The General Assembly approved minutes from September\u2019s GA meeting.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Remarks by the Dean of Libraries (J. Lucia)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Dean Lucia spoke about Alex Holzman\u2019s retirement from the University Press.\u00a0 In the lead-up to Alex\u2019s retirement, the press will be holding a symposium on University Publishing.<\/p>\n

      A search firm has been hired to seek a new press director. Fred Rowland will represent the library on the search committee.\u00a0 The rewritten position description will now include scholarly communications duties, with a more integrated role such as at Purdue or Michigan. Joe is looking for space in Paley for the incoming press director\u2019s office, as working at TASB might prove a disincentive for the caliber of candidates we hope to attract.\u00a0 A possible March 1st<\/sup> start date would allow for a month overlap with Alex.<\/p>\n

      Library Journal interviewed Dean Lucia about the library cancellation rumors in the Inquirer.\u00a0 He announced that the site is officially Barton Hall, but the University is waiting to announce this publicly during the unveiling of the campus master plan.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. New Staff Introductions<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          \n
        1. Margaret Janz (D. Murray)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Margaret Janz comes to us from the Lilly Library at Indiana University where she worked as a cataloging assistant while pursuing her MLS.\u00a0 She has worked for many years in various support roles in libraries.\u00a0 She has a dog named Gadget and enjoys being in the woods, making things, and silly ideas.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. HathiTrust at Temple University Libraries (D. Murray, J. LeBreton)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Jonathan LeBreton and David Murray spoke about concrete aspects of our Hathitrust membership.\u00a0 About 1\/3 of the 10.8 million volumes in the collection are in the Public Domain.\u00a0 Works under copyright are available to us on a limited basis, according to the following triggers:<\/p>\n

            a.\u00a0 In accordance with Section 108 of Copyright Law, we can be granted access if a copy we previously owned is damaged, lost, or stolen.<\/p>\n

            b.\u00a0 Some books marked MISSING in our catalog have full-views available, but this depends on OCLC Accession Number as a match point.<\/p>\n

            c.\u00a0 Print-disabled patrons certified through the Office of Disability Services or Human Resources can obtain screen-reader accessible copies of in-copyright works.<\/p>\n

            David Murray gave a demo of a MISSING book available in Hathitrust, as well as showing the functionality of saved collections.\u00a0 He mentioned possible digital humanities applications for data mining Hathitrust texts, provided that the OCR was acceptable.\u00a0 David is making a research guide to help patrons better understand this resource.<\/p>\n
