    Thank you for posting this, Allison!  

    I just wanted to add that I have worked with the current and past-chairs of the Liaison Coordinating Committee and the Grants and Training/Development component committees, and everyone involved is supportive and excited about forming one overarching committee, ACRL External Liaisons Committee.  Please let me know if you have any questions about the proposed changes outlined in the board action form.

    Best,
    Emily (board liaison to the Liaisons Coordinating Committees and its two component committees)

    Thank you for posting, Allison, and for the additional context, Emily. It is a thoughtful proposal and clearly is designed to address challenges that the group has faced. I am glad to hear that the leadership of the Liaison Coordinating Committee and the Grants and Training/Development component committees is supportive and excited.
