The Staff Development Committee is responsible for programs related to overall staff enrichment and enhancement. The Committee's focus is to consider and plan a staff development program that provides ongoing opportunities for personal and interpersonal development. The Committee consults with the Director of Public Services on the overall direction of staff development in relation to the Library's mission and is responsible for planning programs, workshops, and learning opportunities. The Committee also acts as a clearinghouse for suggestions made by staff for programs related to staff development.
The Committee meets monthly except in July, and plans development events 4–6 times a year.
The Committee consists of five members (two librarians and three staff members) elected to staggered two-year terms. The Educational Services Librarian serves as an ex-officio member.
The Committee will select a chair and a secretary from its members at its first meeting of the year for a term of one year. The term year will be August 1–June 30.
Elections will be held annually the last week of May. All permanent staff are eligible to be elected except those on probationary status and current Committee members. All permanent staff may vote.
The Administrative Assistant will prepare the ballot and give the election results to the Committee chair.
The chair will prepare a report in June of Committee activities during the preceding year and submit it to the Director.
