CO Update

@Leslie Kennedy

Have received permission to rehire Eddie’s position. We are filling empty positions with cost-recovery positions -- Those funds will not be CPOd from our campuses moving forward. 

We have new leadership in place in the system office -- but retirements are coming up as well.

 John asked about a common LMS -- this decision is around the corner (12/12) -- Canvas -- CO will offer premier implementation, faculty training, etc. CO will pay for licenses. Question came up about existing library integrations. Noted that Canvas has excellent library product integration capacity and some campuses have already implemented library products such as Leganto successfully.

CSU-UC-SCELC California Collections Statement

@Amy Kautzman

Using this for ACS negotiation in motion right now. Use as a card to share with Elsevier. Not a binding document, statement of principle. Document has now been cleaned up; will not make it immediately public 

SCELC board has done their work on this; ULs in UCs brought back some language and they pushed back, and they have agreed (mostly has been through CDL).

*Motion: So moved that COLD accept the CSU-UC-SCELC California Collections Statement (Jen Fabbi)

EDI/Ethnic Studies e-resources

@Amy Kautzman @Cyril Oberlander (Unlicensed)

How to engage the faculty?

  1. Option 1: $114,885 for EBSCO Ethnic Diversity Source

  2. Option 2 - Archives: $592,631

  3. Option 3 - Database and archives combination - $707,516 with potentially $120,885 (EDS) of ongoing expenses 

Concern about the perspectives of the materials and motivations by vendors to market in this way.

What makes sense in terms of engaging with faculty about this? Are these better campus to campus?  (Mark shared Northridge experience) 

AB 1460: This is a statewide mandate and it makes sense to have a common baseline of resources (ethnic studies is a specific definition).

Most of these are one-time purchases (historical) but not a lot current information. Discussion about the need for DEI media and the challenges.

SRDC put forward three options 

Discussion of how to approach faculty: systemwide group vs going to faculty locally.  


*Motion: Recognize appreciation for the SRDC DEI Recommendations and propose a campus Ethnic Studies Faculty review prior to next steps. 

Seconded by @Jen Fabbi (Unlicensed)

22 in favor (unanimous) 

This will be up to each dean to manage on their campus. Report back in February and ready to move on to next steps. Amy and Cyril will share fuller descriptions of the databases. Request for SDSU, CSUN, and Fullerton to share their own lists.

@Karen Schneider (Unlicensed) will put together a shared document or form for us to submit our campus findings.

 

10:30 am

PQ1A

@Amy Kautzman @Cyril Oberlander (Unlicensed)

SRDC is considering as a possible replacement for Ebsco. SRDC is proposing a 6-month pilot proposal. $230k for a 6-month pilot. Spring pilot is too short notice to get substantive faculty input. 

Total cost of PQ1A is ca. $1.5m. Pilot is $230k. Chris Bulock: more trouble than it’s worth. General sense that it’s too soon. Is there room to leverage PQ1A in our Ebsco negotiations? What are our other options for the $400k? Noted that last year we used rollover to prepay other resources. 

Consensus is that saying no at this time is fine. Volatile marketplace, etc. The timing is off. 

Amy and Cyril will communicate the key issues (too much change, precedent of paying for a trial).
