190 The University of California Libraries Steering Committee. • An advisory committee composed of administrators, faculty, a student representative, and a representative of the Librarians Association of the University of California (LAUC). • A director or coordinator of the regional facility, who would supervise the staff of each facility and report, for administrative purposes, to the Executive Director. It should be emphasized that the regional centers are intended to be Systemwide facilities, and will not be under the control of a single campus library. To the extent that CSUC and other institutions participate in the use of the regional facility, representatives from those institutions should also be invited to serve on the advisory committee, and the librarians of those institutions should meet with the Board in a liaison capacity. Operating control of the facility, however, should remain under the jurisdiction of the University. Systemwide. All concerned and affected sectors of the University should participate, directly or indirectly, in the governance of its library system. At present, there are several consultative and advisory channels which the plan assumes will continue: • The Systemwide Academic Senate Library Committee advises the University on matters of library policy through two of its members who serve ex officio on the Library Policy Steering Committee, and report its deliberations back to the Senate. • The Library Council, composed of the University Librarians from each campus, the Deans of the two library schools, and several other officers, meets twice yearly to provide a channel of communication on systemwide library operating matters, and to make policy recommendations to the Steering Committee and the President. The chair of the Council serves ex officio on the Systemwide Library Policy Steering Committee, reporting the recommendations of the Library Council, and reporting back to the Library Council on actions by the Steering Committee. • The Librarians Association of the University of California (LAUC) provides recommendations on library matters through its President, who serves ex officio as a member of the Library Council.
XI. Governance 191 • Administrative officers from the campuses, chosen on the basis of their interest in, and experience with, library policy matters, serve on the Systemwide Library Policy Steering Committee, and contribute both campus and administrative perspectives to the Committee's deliberations. Development of systemwide library policies and plans involves full and continual consultation not only with these bodies but with interested individuals throughout the University. Advice and recommendations from all sources are referred to the Library Policy Steering Committee, which will continue to be the primary advisory body on systemwide library poli-cy. Recommendations of the Steering Committee are then submitted to the Academic Vice President and the President for approval, and for any further discussion or dissemination they may deem appropriate. Once systemwide library policies and plans are approved, the Steering Committee is charged with implementing them, acting through the Executive Director as its operational arm and agent. Except for activities that are formally organized on a systemwide or regional basis, however, the actual carrying out of library policies and plans will continue to be done by the individual libraries on each campus, where the particular needs and appropriate methods of operation are best known. Statewide. Many of the statewide cooperative efforts in which the University of California libraries participate are likely to be carried out in the future through the California Library Authority for Systems and Services (CLASS), of which the University is a member. Governance provisions for CLASS are specified in the "Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement" which serves as its charter and constitution. Final authority rests with the CLASS Board of Directors, composed of one representative from each of the participating segments. President Saxon serves as the University's representative on the Board, with the Executive Director acting as his permanent alternate. Cooperative arrangements between CSUC and the University will in the majority of cases be arranged between the individual campuses involved, through participation in one of the regional systems, or through CLASS. Systemwide agreements will be negotiated through the
