@Carolyn, I can't tell if I am showing video as I only see 8 people.

When at home, I use the "adjust for low light" filter in Zoom, because I like to work in natural light when I can.

@Mirhonda - in Omaha! My hometown!!

That’s the answer

@ Beth Bailey, only panelists and people speaking at the meeting have their videos enabled.

I thought about you @Jane! It's beautiful here. Nice change of scenery.

oh good! I didn't brush my hair for the meeting

NAP?

I have a question.

Excellent job as treasurer, Bobbi!

How many members of STC do we have currently?

sorry, if that was not a treasurer question

I have a question

Ok, thank you

The election email said: "When voting concluded, of the 1,705 eligible voters, 214 (12.55%) cast ballots”

Why are all chapters being audited?

Isn’t that the purpose of year-end financial reports?

@LizF that was at the end of February. As of today, the number is 2,224.

The election numbers were based on membership registration as of a certain date. More people have registered since then.

👍

Thanks for the updated number @Liz Pohland

It's a common organizational practice to audit. It's not a witch hunt, just to ensure standard and best practices are followed.

Then make sure the year end report and any other report (budget request) asks all the required information.

Re: comment on audit: That would be helpful to know very early on and share information publicly with everyone so we feel not targeted unfairly.

Move that the board consider recording all sessions for the STC Annual Summit, so that they can be made available for free to people who attended the Summit and be sold to people who are unable to attend.

Didn’t Bobbi report that the virtual summit was net positive from a revenue perspective?

What are the additional A/V and production costs to record all sessions?

I would like to speak for

@Mirhonda There are significant additional A/V and production costs to record sessions and host sessions online afterwards.

I would like to speak against

Thank you @Kirsty

The 2021 conference was exclusively remote and, yes, cleared a profit. The combination of onsite and remote is considerably more expensive.

I posted an FAQ on this topic on the Summit website: https://summit.stc.org/frequently-asked-summit-questions/

I don't think we need to hire AV people. PowerPoint has a Record feature

After-market sales my very well surpass cost to record.

I would like to speak against.

yes

Honestly, I was thinking the only expense would be microphones. Using volunteers and the Record feature on PowerPoint

No video cameras

Very few people have purchased virtual Summit sessions in the past (not enough to cover extra AV costs), in addition to additional work and overhead to speakers, staff, and volunteers.

can you repeat the question?

Thank you

I did purchase them. And also that was pre-Covid

So we are voting to consider/

I made a similar motion in 2019

thanks

It passed. The Board considered and decided against it.

I see no issues with investigating

+1 @Liz

I recognize the cost, especially in a quick turnaround, but I believe there is value in exploring the recording of a limited roster of sessions and keynotes in future summits

+2 @Liz

It would be good to get actual numbers and not just “it would be a lot of overhead”.

We investigate all options every year

I voted for but think recording should be very selective.

I'm eager to learn more about the virtual educational event for later this year. Perhaps it may be a partial solution

Thanks everyone
