I see CILIP has now sent out a second survey now asking for (up to three) suggestions to a new name! I have registered my three names, all with the Library word in them. I am not sure whether any are any good but I do like the first one…

And I think the way to make Council and the Senior Management Team listen to the debate is through the democratic structures, that is through a General Meeting. You can add your voice to those calling for one at http://tinyurl.com/pw2glwx

I saw Biddy's remarks in another place, but the interesting thing about the call for the General Meeting is that it is attracting support from, inter alia, people who have held high office in CILIP and put a great deal of time and work into the organisation. We are not the usual grumblers and moaners who sit back doing nothing.

All –

 

I am concerned that much or all of this valuable debate and many of the valid points made – most of which I agree with – will be lost or wasted because CILIP will ignore it as being inappropriate or in an inappropriate/wrong place (as well as by the usual suspects!).

 

This was a point made by Biddy Fisher a few days ago.

 

Her other point about us – the members – BEING CILIP and therefore a part of the process is a little disingenuous. The ‘senior management team’ has always done its own thing despite Council (I speak as an ex-Trustee), and certainly with little reference to the membership. AGMs may represent the democratic process through which we may all join the debate, but in reality are so structured and so poorly attended (due to travel and time constraints of members) that it is rare for the members’ voice to be heard let alone for it to make a difference.

 

Somehow – and I know Phil as President has read the discussion – but, somehow this debate has to be taken to – and discussed with – the senior management team and Council so that it is heeded and acknowledged.

 

Chris
