The mission of the Government Documents Round Table (GODORT) is to (1) To provide a forum for discussion of problems, concerns, and for exchange of ideas by librarians working with government documents; (2) to provide a force for initiating and supporting programs to increase availability, use, and bibliographic control of documents; (3) to increase communication between documents librarians and other librarians; (4) to contribute to the extension and improvement of education and training of documents librarians.

Please find attached the draft ALA Midwinter Steering Committee meeting minutes. These were previously distributed to the Steering reflector and are posted here to facilitate access.
Please let me know if you have any comments. Thanks to Andrea, Cass, Valerie, and Jill for earlier comments, which I believe I have incorporated.
Hello everyone,
Please let me know if you have any additional comments about these minutes by June 5th.
After that point, I'll send them through the form to post on the wiki and will also post them for general access on ALA Connect. While procedures for minutes distribution are being reviewed and tweaked, I think it can only help to post draft minutes where they reach the widest audience possible.
At this point, we'll only print about 4 copies of the minutes for review and discussion at ALA Annual in an effort to save paper.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
