With our second online AGM having been completed a week ago (I do apologise for the lateness in having the minutes and results out), I can say I think we're getting better at it. I have noted that something we should really try explaining better is the legal jargon we use, for example, when to use the "abstain" response. Anyhoooo, here they are:

Feedback from Question: "What events or speakers would you like to see, hear, or meet in the region?:
- Good question. Some more Hutt Valley events would be great. I'll need to think about this more
- Quiz night. Would be keen for another sesion on copyright and DRM
- events in the Hutt please.
political discussion about real questions in the profession e.g. "value of being RLIANZA, versus qualifications". MIS vs teaching qual, teacher/librarianship.
a partnered event with SLANZA would be nice - Maori
- Possible election themed meeting at the end of the year
Further comments:
- Really enjoyed LIANZA b'day at Film archive and Meet the Leaders keep it up
- Thank you very much to all the committee members for October 2009 - October 2010 for their work for us over the year. Much appreciated.
Sadly, we do farewell Paddy Plunket and Anne Thompson at this point in the minutes of the AGM. We wish Paddy and Anne all the best and hope to continue to see them in the library and information management community.
Thank you to all attendees and visitors of our AGM. And congratulations and a big huge welcome and thank you to the new standing committee members, Tom, Cherie, Helen and Kathryn!
Kia ora.
Hana
