Advisory Committee

Purpose Statement

The ESDN Advisory Committee (AC) is responsible for providing advice and recommendations to ESDN (via METRO) on matters of concern and interest to the AC, its members, and the ESDN and DPLA in general. Advice and recommendations may center on policy-level matters pertaining to the ESDN’s strategic direction, technology, content infrastructure, partnerships, program development, administration, or other matters relevant to the network or its users, staff, and stakeholders. The AC also serves an advocacy and community-building role; speaking in support of ESDN and DPLA to potential partners throughout New York. Talking points or equivalent documents may be distributed at regular intervals for people who do wish to speak on behalf of the ESDN and DPLA in various situations.
