Minutes of the LIANZA IT-SIG 2005 AGM

13th September 2005

Present: John Laurie, Paul Sutherland, Andrew White, Peter Kennedy (Chair) and observers.

1. Apologies

Daphne Dashfield, Brian Flaherty, Brenda Chawner

2. Treasurer’s report

The Treasurer, John Laurie, presented his report of the accounts for the year ending 30th June 2005. The Treasurer’s report (Peter Kennedy moved, Paul Sutherland seconded) was received and approved by the meeting.

3. Convenor’s report

The outgoing convenor, Brian Flaherty, was unable to attend. His report was submitted in writing and received by the meeting.

4. 2004/05 committee

Nominations were called for, following which it was moved from the chair, and approved by the meeting, that the following be appointed to the committee:

• Auckland: John Laurie, Bob Pearson – both University of Auckland
• Wellington: Brenda Chawner (VUW – School of Information Studies), Daphne Dashfield (National Library)
• Christchurch: Paul Sutherland (Christchurch City Libraries), Andrew White (Lincoln University), Peter Kennedy (University of Canterbury)

John continues to hold the office of treasurer.

In the absence of nominations for convenor, Peter Kennedy agreed to take on that role in the interim.

5. Other business

Issues discussed, and requiring attention by the incoming committee were:

• VALA 2006 sponsorship
• Membership which seems to be declining (perhaps as there is little publicity given the SIGs by LIANZA)
• Road-show of the main centres (Brian Flaherty and Peter Kennedy)
• Small numbers attending the last two AGMs of ITSIG.
