CONGREGATION 28 November
Notice
As explained in the Vice-Chancellor's Oration
(Gazette, p. 174) and in the notices on pp. 37 and
184, Council had in mind the possibility of a debate in
Congregation on 28 November about the report of Council's Working
Party on Senior Library Posts. Council has now given further
consideration to the timetable for this debate and has decided
that it would be preferable for the matter to be put before
Congregation in Hilary Term rather than at the end of Michaelmas
Term, in order in particular to allow time for consideration of the
report of the advisory group (chaired by the Warden of Rhodes House)
on the management structure for an integrated library system, which
will be published as a Supplement to the Gazette on 16
November.
