MONTANA KAIMIN Friday, February 6, 2004 V olume CVI, Issue 59 Debate stalls idle library committee

Myers Reece Montana Kaimin There is currently no functioning Library and Archives Committee at the University of Montana due to an ongoing debate between the Faculty Senate and the Mansfield Library’s faculty over defining the commit- tee’s purpose. The Faculty Senate worked on a proposal over the summer to replace the Library and Archives Committee, which has not convened this year, with the Faculty Library Committee. However, the library’s two facul- ty senators, Sebastian Derry and Susan Mueller, said library faculty were not includ- ed in the rewriting process from the begin- ning and want the process to start anew to include them. “We work at the library, and I believe we should be a part of any process like this that involves the library from the start,” Mueller said. Lisa Hornstein/Montana Kaimin While the Faculty Senate and the library “If you rent, you’re not getting your money back. With a house, it appreciates,” said junior Carl Christofferson.
