Michelle Wake – chair (MW)

Martin Carbonell (MC)

Vicky Robertson (VR)

Sally Faith (SF)

Gianina Harvey – minutes (GH)


 1) Welcome and apologies

MW welcomed the group to the meeting. Apologies were received from David Archer (DA).

 

 2) Minutes from the previous meeting (10th September 2015)

The minutes were approved.

 

3) Points of action from last minutes:

  • New TG members

MC and VR have both accepted two new members to each of their task groups. GH reported that TG3 also have a new member, and may consider a second.

SF is in talks with a potential member, but expressed concerns that a current TG member may need to take sabbatical leave from the group. MW agreed to speak with the individual in person, to better assess whether they can continue to be part of cpd25.

ACTION – MW to contact TG4 member

MC announced that he will be stepping down from cpd25 after the Planning Day, due to work commitments. The Steering Group were unanimous in thanking MC for all his hard work and time spent with cpd25. MW proposed that a new TG1 Chair be selected in time for Planning Day, so that a smooth handover can be conducted. Following the precedent from last year, MW will invite all current task group members to apply for the role of Chair, and MW and MC will shortlist and make final decision on the candidate.

ACTION – MW to send invitation to task group members, for the role of TG1 Chair

  • Working with other Consortia

GH reported that work is ongoing in this area – MW and GH are arranging a meeting with the London Health Libraries Group, as they have expressed an interest in cpd25 creating bespoke events for them.

  • Events for Associate Directors

MW reported that work has been done to recruit speakers for a PSI event, but a date has not yet been set.

4) Finance report

Please see attached document. GH presented the balance sheet to the group, confirming that all events delivered so far have returned a surplus.

 

 5) Reports from Task Groups

  • TG1

Please see attached report. GH reported a slight change to the PQW series, as the first events will now be taking place on 2nd February.

  • TG2

Please see attached report. GH reported that the E-Collections Management event was due to be re-run in February 2016, but was proving difficult to host as a computer room is needed. MW and VR suggested an IT suite at UCL, subject to availability.

ACTION – MW and VR to check availability of IT suite at UCL, liaising with GH.

  • TG3

Please see attached report. GH reported that a member has left TG3, due to relocation.

  • TG4

SF relayed feedback on the success of TG4 events held so far; ‘Marketing your Library’ and ‘Managing Student Behaviour.’ Concerns were expressed over the delivery of the event ‘Operational Managers Networking’, which was due to take place in April 2016. MW has offered to help with recruiting speakers for this event.

An event was discussed at the last TG4 meeting – HEA fellowships – which SF thought would fit better in the remit of TG1.

  • Update from M25 SG meeting 22nd September

MW reported that a vacancy has arisen in the M25 Steering Group, due to a member stepping down.

In regards to the sponsorship policy discussed at the last meeting, this has now been redrafted and the implications on cpd25 have been reduced. This met with the approval of the cpd25 Steering Group. GH queried whether the funds raised from cpd25’s inclusion in the higher tiered packages would result in a portion of the money being given to cpd25 either to improve events, or towards the cpd25 Planning Day.

The M25 website refresh project has begun, and the M25 Steering Group is currently consulting with the web developers to create a new website. This will involve the integration of cpd25’s current website, so MW proposed that GH be included in all focus groups set up by the M25, as cpd25 representative.

MW announced that the title of the M25 Annual Conference 2016 will be ‘measuring our impact and demonstrating our value.’

 

6) Cpd25 Planning Day 2016

GH reported that she has been in talks with a trainer to develop a workshop for the morning slot of the Planning Day, and asked the Steering group to decide a theme. The Steering Group agreed on a combination of ‘staying confident’ and ‘increasing positivity.’

ACTION – GH to confirm workshop for Planning Day

 

7) Any other business

GH asked the Steering group whether cpd25 would receiving a Terms of Reference from the M25 (and if so, how would that impact current operations), as this has been discussed informally amongst the M25 Officers. MW responded, clarifying that this was an idea mooted at an Officers meeting, but no progress has yet been made.

 

8) Date/venue of next meeting – 17th March 2016 (cpd25 Planning Day)
