Additional Interest Groups may be formed at the request of any five staff members with approval of the Steering Committee.
Interest group membership
Interest Group membership is open to any interested party from any ARC library. CMRLS members who are not ARC members are also invited to participate, as appropriate.
Because of the cross-functional nature of the Interest Groups, it is expected that members may move from one Interest Group to another, depending on projects, programs and individual interests. Communication will take place on ARC-L, and any reports will be made available on blogs provided through the ARC website at
