The Appendix 48 Advisory Committee announces the completion of its charge as granted by UUP President, Dr. Frederick Kowal.
After months of review and analysis of the feedback received by members, the committee submitted two reports outlining its specific findings. The reports, the first of which contains the committee’s general recommendations and observations on the quality of working lives of UUP-represented librarians as per its committee charge, while the second, special report to the President outlines the committee’s contract related findings. Both reports were submitted to President Kowal prior to UUP’s Fall Delegate Assembly. The reports are being reviewed, and will remain confidential until such time as is appropriate for their release, however, the recommendations as outlined within the reports will inform the committee’s future work. In the meantime, the committee is still hard at work, reviewing the 2014 UUP Librarian Equity Survey’s findings, and intends to release that analysis by the end of this current academic year.
