Expectations
The LSTA Advisory Council seeks representatives with experience in database licensing and with the use and/or selection of databases.

Involvement in SDLAC will include representing your constituent group by attending meetings, participating on a listserv, participating in the database vendor selection process, and providing feedback on the success of the statewide database licensing program. For more information about the program, consult the Statewide Database Licensing Program web site<http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/technology/sdlp/index.aspx>.

The Statewide Database Licensing Advisory Committee is required to meet at least once a year. Currently the committee meets more frequently, since it is in the process of working on a new 5 year contract. Attendance can be in person in Salem or via teleconference. Reimbursements cannot be made for travel or substitute staff.

Any other questions?  Please feel free to contact me.
