Literature approval process for new literature As of Louisville '10 1. Any item of new literature that a member wishes to have approved by the Board of Trustees, as either GA approved or GA appropriate, must be placed on the Trustee agenda through established procedures. 1a. Any agenda item submitted for BOT approval that may require work by the Literature Committee must appear as an agenda attachment in an editable format acceptable to the Literature Committee. (separately approved item from Montreal '09) 2. The proposed new literature must be available to all current Trustees via the Trustee website agenda as an attachment no later than the closing date of the Trustee agenda, as outlined by the Board of Trustees. 3. If the item is to be considered as GA approved literature, the Trustees will initially vote solely on the merit of proceeding with the proposed literature. Items to be considered as GA appropriate literature are exempt from this step. (See #8) 4. If the item is approved on merit, each Trustee will have 30 days from the end of the Trustee meeting to advise the literature committee of any recommendations to improve the literature. 5. The literature committee will prepare suggestions to improve the item, in addition to making spelling and grammar changes. The author will be responsible for accepting any literature committee suggestions before a final copy of the item is prepared by the literature committee in time for the next Trustee meeting. 6. The literature committee will be responsible for submitting the corrected item to the next Trustee agenda where it must go through 2 additional votes to become GA approved literature. 7. New literature produced by a Board of Trustees committee will only undergo editing changes involving spelling and grammar, providing the item passes the 1st of 2 votes. 8. If new literature is to be considered as GA appropriate literature, it must pass only 1 vote, after which the item will be submitted to the literature committee for editing changes involving only spelling and grammar. 9. Any item submitted to the Literature Committee must be in an editable format (i.e. Word) including documents, CD's, etc. Please check with the Literature Committee Chairperson prior to submission to be determined that your document meets the required format. |
