Updated LIS Focus Document (draft)

Michael Roy — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 13:26:54 +0000

At a recent retreat, the AD Team reviewed and updated the LIS Current Focus document. The current version of the document can be found at http://www.middlebury.edu/offices/technology/lis/about/priorities , while the draft of the updated version can be found at http://docs.google.com/View?id=dhb56n4x_221g6bb7sft . Before we finalize this, we thought it would be useful to collect comments, questions, and suggestions. Questions we have are:

Is this document useful? If so, how?
What could we do to make the document more useful?
What’s on the list that shouldn’t be on the list?
What’s missing from the list?

We also worry that this list of priorities may be confusing, given the project directory and our strategic planning website , both of which provide ways of looking at our work. The hope is that the Focus Document will complement these, rather than being yet another list of things that we are working on.

I plan to post a final version of this shortly.
