  • 1.  June 08 2023 GameRT Monthly Board Meeting Agenda

    Posted Jun 05, 2023 08:21 PM

    Hello everyone!

    Here's the agenda for our regularly scheduled monthly board meeting (we will also have a meeting in person at ALA Annual later this month). If you have anything to add to the agenda, please let me know.

    All GameRT members are welcome to attend board meetings. When we call for votes during board meetings, only board members vote. There is an open comment/question period at the end of the meeting where members can ask questions. These meetings are a great opportunity to hear updates about the round table and upcoming events.

    This meeting takes place on Thursday, June 8, 2023 at 12p Central via Zoom.
