5.D.5 The institution consults library and information resources staff in curriculum development.
From fall 2002 through spring 2004, the Librarian served on the Academic Affairs Committee, the committee charged with curriculum review and development. With the creation of Faculty Senate, this institutional function transferred to ASCR Committee (Academic Standards and Curriculum Review) in fall 2006. In fall 2008 (10/21/08), Faculty Senate Bylaws were amended to include the librarian as a voting member of ASCR.
As a recently added participant on this committee, the librarian has provided a reporting of our existing collections when new courses have been proposed to ASCR. This reporting should probably be formalized into a regular review component of any curriculum additions or revisions.
To those of you with more history, especially faculty, does this sound correct?
