ACTS SURVEY RESULTS
In January of 1986, the ACTS Executive Committee conducted a
survey of the clerical and technical staff in the Library system.
The results of this survey are as follows:
I 1. The ACTS Assembly members are interested first in the
development of the personnel:

b. Library employee benefits
c. Branch library tours
2. The ACTS Assembly members would like to establish a standing
committee to assist new staff in becoming part of the library
system.

representatives to serve as a channel of communication
between individual staff, and the ACTS Executive Committee.
a. Use of the Green Bean for ACTS news and
announcements.
b. An ACTS/LSO coordinating committee liason.
4.. More investigation of the Tuition Remission status.
5. Information from the Library Administration to the staff,
concerning the parking situation.
6. Required routing of Faculty and Administrative Meeting

staff.

7. Opportunity for clerical and technical staff to evaluate
supervisors and administrators.
8. Regular meetings between Mr. Paul Willis and the whole
library staff to provide news, updates and to answer
questions concerning library decisions.
9. General consensus that there is too much work — for too few
people to do; also strong feelings from staff that they are
overlooked, undervalued, and generally left out of any
decision making process that involves them.
10. Library temperature control is still causing discomfort in
many areas.
There will be an ACTS General Assembly Meeting on Wednesday,
April 2nd, 1986, in the King North Gallery. The survey results
will be the main topic of discussion, with Mr. Paul Willis as the
speaker. We want you there!
