Annual report published as AGM nears
The VSSN annual report, published today, provides an account to its members
on VSSN activities 21.5.03 - 31.7.04. The following extracts give a flavour of
the Steering Group's report:-
- "members... have worked hard to develop an
infrastructure that is both sustainable and which will allow the organisation
to grow"
- "we saw it as important to establish a number of key
resources"
- "We want VSSN to be inclusive rather than exclusive"
- "One difficult decision was whether to charge a
subscription"
- "a discussion list...has been a resounding success"
- "a website for VSSN...will add enormously to what we
can offer to members and others interested in our work"
- "We...wanted to establish the presence of VSSN as a
distinctive part of the UK research community"
- "We are really pleased to have been co-sponsors of
the conference with NCVO for the first time in 2004"
- "the Steering Group has sought to build a small
working balance to support the development of the Network"
All members are encouraged to read the report in full, and come to the AGM
prepared to hold the Steering Group to account and help shape VSSN's next year
of development.
The annual report is to be presented during VSSN's first Annual General
Meeting, to held on 27 October in the middle of the next Day Conference. You can find full details on this Web site of:-
