<p class="x_x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">I wanted to share with you the recommendation from the Vice Provost/ALO at MT State University – Bozeman. Please see her email below, in which she advises that we reach
out to the NWCCU commissioners from our respective states.</span></p>

<p class="x_x_MsoPlainText"><span style="color:#0070C0"> </span></p>
<p class="x_x_MsoPlainText"><span style="color:#0070C0">I am happy to deliver whatever response Dr. Arlitsch would like to forward to NWCCU and all of you should communicate with NWCCU directly with feedback. I will stay informed and will begin communicating
your concerns next week to Mac Powell, Senior Fellow at NWCCU and one of the architects of the new standards, when I see him in Boise.
</span></p>
<p class="x_x_MsoPlainText"><span style="color:#0070C0"> </span></p>
<p class="x_x_MsoPlainText"><span style="color:#0070C0; background:yellow">A much better strategy is to reach out to the commissioners from your state. Remember, that we, the institutions, are NWCCU and each state has representation on the Commission. You
can find the list of commissioners at <a href="http://www.nwccu.org/about-nwccu/commissioners/">
<span style="color:#0070C0">http://www.nwccu.org/about-nwccu/commissioners/</span></a></span><span style="color:#0070C0"></span></p>
<p class="x_x_MsoPlainText"><span style="color:#0070C0"> </span></p>
<p class="x_x_MsoPlainText"><span style="color:#0070C0">The Commission will meet this summer (June I believe) and I suspect that is when commissioners will have the opportunity to raise concerns and make suggestions about the proposed revisions to the standards.
If you can get the commissioners on board to alter the proposed standards in ways that you believe will protect the integrity of the Library and its place in higher ed institutions that would likely be effective.

<p class="x_x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:#2F5597">Hello Candice! Thank you so much for the email and help coordinating these efforts! I used your link to add the comments I received from my VPI, Betsy Julian, here at COCC,
which some of you might have already seen in other, related email communications. I feel that Betsy’s response may help provide a clearer perspective on the thinking behind the proposed accreditation standards and how we may need to respond to them. Last
week, the Alliance Council also had a lengthy discussion about their response as a group to the proposed NWCCU draft and will soon have a revised statement to reflect our agreement. Basically, we came to the conclusion that Information Literacy may be addressed
in Standard 1 as part of each of our individual institution’s definition of outcomes (standard 1 takes accreditation expectations to a different level, allowing each college and university to set their own goals), whereas standard 2 is more of a list of basic
requirements to meet federal standards outside the 7<sup>th</sup> year evaluation process. The Alliance Council’s statement is expected to reflect that, with a request for an addition to 2.G.1 (“Library and Information Resources”) for the need of qualified
library staff rather than information literacy per se. Michelle and Natalie who are in the Alliance Board may have their own comments on this and perhaps share the revised response once it is ready.</span></p>

<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:black">Hello everyone. I am happy to see this discussion. I was also disappointed in the wording of several of the new standards, and the library was one of them. I share your
concerns that they focused on a collection and not the impact. If you do write a response for your ALO, it would be good to let them know it it coming so that they don't submit your institutional response without your input. </span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:black"> </span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:black">I would suggest thinking about the role of the commission -- their job is to assure standards are met and through those they attempt to define quality. So in your response,
if you go to 1)the whole role of the library, not just the collections; 2)the lack of impact of the verb they chose, and 3) how those other holistic library elements (integration with faculty, assuring students can discern quality information and successfully
complete assignments...) assure institutional quality play a critical role in contributing to learning as opposed to what librarians need or want or see the library you will reach a wider audience. <span style="background:white">They are moving to an accreditation
system that elevates student learning, graduation, and retention. Focus on the library contributions to that aspect of the college mission. </span></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:black"> </span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:black">I would also give them language to work with. What is your suggested language for them to change to? </span></p>
