Minutes of the cpd25 Statutory Requirements & Legal Compliance Task Group held on 17th May 2007 at 10.30am, Roehampton University. Present: Chair: Caroline Lloyd, , Tony Haworth, Robert Atkinson, Michelle Wake, Hilary Webb, Kristy Widdicombe, Diana Watt, Dave Puplett (administrator). 1. Apologies: Ruth Harrison. 2. Task Group Membership: Hilary Webb, Nick Hollis and Gerry Power have all the left the group. Gerry is moving to another cpd25 task group, but will continue to be available to run the Legal Research Skills session. The group wishes to thank all three for their contributions and hard work for cpd25. Joining the group are Kristy Widdicombe of Kingston, Diana Watt of University of Westminster and Michelle Wake of the School of Pharmacy. 3. Minutes of previous meeting: Accepted as an accurate record. 4. Matters Arising: Will be dealt with in following agenda items. 5. Task Group Remit: A new name and possible changes to the remit of the group were discussed. Proposals for the name were to include Quality, Standards and Legal Frameworks, and to remove Statutory Requirements and Compliance all together. It was also agreed that the remit should reflect how the group focuses on practical implementation in libraries rather than purely theoretical concerns. Caroline to look at JISC website for guidance and to circulate summary of ideas to the group for approval. 6. Programme 06/07: Events: Employment Law, January, at Birkbeck College. Arranged by Hilary, run by JSB. Very good feedback, and a great success. Ran to a planned deficit, which Dave was happy with. Dave noted that the advance publicity was very effective and ensured good turn out for this expensive event. Legal Research Skills, March, Institute of Historical Research, Gerry Power. Fully booked and strong feedback. This regular session can be run again next year by Gerry, for this group with one of the current group member liaising. Freedom of Information, Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, March, arranged by Tony Haworth. Good feedback, although a smaller audience than expected. We broke even however. Really good panel of speakers, with a good discussion session at the end. It was agreed that we should give the topic of FOI a rest for a year or two. Still to run: Shibboleth, May, SOAS, Robert with Ruth. Panel of John Paschoud, Nicole Harris and Margaret Flett. Dave to ensure room has net access. Chartermark, May, RCOG, Caroline. This event may not run as bookings have been low. Caroline to contact speakers about the viability of running the event with only 6 delegates. It was noted that the proximity to the bank holiday and the fact it was half term week may have affected bookings. An alternative date in early 2008 could be sought, with publicity sent out well in advance. Disability Exchange of Experience session, to be arranged by Kristy with Caroline. This session could still take place in the summer.
This will probably take the form of a round table discussion. Genein Cox should be able to provide contacts for the disability reps and if so they will all be invited. The outcomes will inform the planning for an event in 2007/8.
Visits: Wandsworth and Wormwood both took place sucessfully, let by Gerry and Robert. Dave noted that it was a real shame that there was a no-show on one of the visits as places were so limited. House of Lords visit, arranged by Ruth and led by Dave. The group really enjoyed this visit. 7. Programme 07/08: Legal Implications of Web 2.0 This could be a larger scale event. Perhaps using case studies of recent hurdles libraries have faced. Caroline encouraged the group to email thoughts around, and to discuss the focus of the event more at the next meeting. This event would run after Easter at the earliest. Plagiarism with Data Protection focus. Kristy, with Michelle. Jan/Feb Diversity Legal perspectives? Teaching diversity? This could be a different take on the International Student in the Library session ran by TG5 previously. Diana, Caroline as backup. May Copyright / ERA Copyright in VLE's Someone from ERA perhaps? Creative Commons? Provisionally Ruth, with Diana as backup. Caroline to contact Ruth. Easter time. Disability Tony, with Kristy, June Legal Research Skills Robert to liaise with Gerry Power, March Retirement / Pensions / Age Discrimination Robert, with Caroline. Possible JSB event. Jan/Feb Hilary to feedback from pre-retirement talk she's attending. Visits: Bronzefield Michelle, with contacts via Dave, Autumn Wandsworth Tony, contacts via Robert, Jan/Feb Weiner Library Robert, Autumn The National Archives at Kew Tony, Summer BFI Kristy, anytime 8. AOB: Tony asked whether there could be a breakdown of events by task group listed on the cpd25 webpages. Dave felt that it could be put on the task group page, but would ultimately be a lower priority for the administrator. Caroline also updated the group on the process of selecting a new cpd25 Chair. M25 are confident someone would be appointed shortly, to start in August. 9. Date of next meeting: Friday 6th September, 10.30. School of Pharmacy, Michelle to arrange a room and identify a lunch venue. DP 31/5/07 |
