Notes

Leadership Group Elections update

  • We’re in the midst of Leadership Group elections. The bronze members elected Christian Hauschke as their representative. Congrats to Christian! And thanks for agreeing to serve on the group again this year.
  • Nominations are now open for three community members. Anyone affiliated with a VIVO member institution can nominate anyone to serve on the LG. So that’s all of you! I hope you’ll all submit your nominations for three community members on the Google Form linked from the agenda.

Julia I’m glad that we are joined by Robert Miller and Laurie Arp from LYRASIS discussion on the topics listed. We will go around after and give everyone a minutes or two for questions or comments if you’d like.

Financial reporting formats from LYRASIS

  • Erin: There will be a change in the financial reports and we’ll be using the VIVO Proforma Balance Sheet which is a comprehensive look at the finances including total assets and liabilities. More to the GAP standard. Erin will send this to Julia and Mike – more orientation is coming soon.

Transitioning the VIVO MOU

  • Erin: Lyrasis’ financial year is January 1 – December 31. So we will need to adjust this year’s MOU and the LYRASIS lawyer has put an agreement in place as a first step, which Erin will send to Julia and Mike.

Hopes for the organizational home relationship with the project

  • Robert: I am excited and interested to learn about a new community – we are using the merger to look at everything with fresh eyes to see what can be improved.
  • Erin: Laurie is working on an event in early July for staff to meet and introduce the projects.
