SWAN Circulation Advisory

The Circulation Advisory Group is a 9-member advisory group that meets quarterly. Meetings are held four times a year on the third Wednesday of the month. The Advisory Group members serve two-year terms on a rotating basis. Advisory Group members may be called to volunteer as members of strategic task forces. This group will take part in discussions led by SWAN and will bring forth resulting recommendations to the SWAN Executive Director.  

All discussions and research topics are guided by the following principles: 

• Consensus building leads to constructive progress  

• Consortium-wide perspective is prioritized over individual library procedures 

• Patron experience guides recommendations 

• Cooperation between other Advisory Groups creates a better consortium
