Scope and Contents

This collection is minimally processed.

Collection includes records pertaining to the work done by the Librarian Status Committee and associated committees. The Librarian Status Committee worked to create a document to govern appointment and promotion of librarians once they attained faculty rank (ca. 1985-1986). Librarians had been advocating to join Faculty Senate since at least 1978. Also included are some records of the work of the Initial Appointment and Promotion Commitee (ca. 1987-1988) and all or most of the versions of the librarians' criteria document for faculty appointment and promotion.
