Librarian

Now is 4x less wise due to wisdom teeth removal. The library has not burned down and there have been no complaints on Facebook book removal post. A book from 2006 is being returned and found the necromincon.

2. Events

  *   Swancon

  *   a thing that happened which was really good. We should push it more next year but there is the expense for students. Annique got put in contact with programmer for next year and they’re keen for younger audience targets. They asked whether we could promote some of their screenings which we can probably do. There have also been talks of unisfa run panels and on panels. This might mean we could get cheaper tickets. The old guard talked about things and there was a lot of support for Unisfa. There was also lot of talk about 40th anniversary with a lot of people put in contact with. Annique will grab a whole thing of connections to give to next committee.
  *   Gengiscon was there launching their 2018 convention. It was made as a reaction to swan con as it’s more affordable and aimed at students with it only $25 for students for the whole week. This is not until next january and we will need to deal with. Annique has a ticket already
  *   Annique met a whole bunch of authors and got books signed. Simon will find a spot to display them in.

  *   Sponsor Crawl

  *   Harry has money for that and will put in fanny pack on the day. All is looking good.

  *   Easter Picnic

  *   There is not anything to report as it’s all planned and good but what day should the fridge run be? It will happen this saturday as easter eggs have been bought already. Everyone on committee except maybe Finley and Kurt are coming. Harry will be bringing eggs and will use committee chat to organise carpool. It starts at 11 and committee people should arrive 15 minutes beforehand and start liveblogging their location

  *   Stargazing

  *   Jack is organising what people are doing on the day. Space is doing everything but the food so we need to bring sausages, buns, (gluten free). This is a paid event so pulling all the stops with actual buns.We have water in cupboards and need to get soft drinks. We already have tea and coffee supplies and will do check of that. Fridge Run will happen on Saturday as well.
  *   Jack  has made a post on carpooling.
  *   Simon is bringing fairy lights and stuff.
  *   CCC or committee meeting or have a car in general, please offer up carpooling
  *   bring torches, fairy lights and lights in general.

  *   Alien Screening

  *   The movie comes out Thursday 11th May and quiz night is night after so we don’t want to do them in a row. But also don’t want to do it too late so maybe 20th May. Saturday, Kai would run all-day screening of all alien screenings and then collectively go to new alien movie. we need to lock in that for EMP
  *   We’ll probably so to events innaloo because close to stirling station and buses.
  *   Edward can start emp and get in touch with Kai, we’re going to have to go with that day.

  *   Unisfa goes to Panto

  *   12th of May,

  *   Cameron Hall First Aid

  *   still confirming date for that. Low-key handed over to Alex from UCC because makes sense for person doing first aid to be doing the event.

  *   Cameron Hall Quiz Night

  *   Jack and Cam have done posters that are getting reviewed and we will have dark guizmittee meeting, sell tickets,

  *   Welfare Week

  *   will not need to do emp for other stuff than pyjama party, unisfa goes’s during this week, Finley will do slime factory event.
  *   Unisfa goes to the zoo on the weekend of welfare week, group booking deals screen zootopia afterwards. This will be on the 27th of May and Edward has had a quick chat to casey.
  *   There will be alcohol at the Zoo restaurant but our event is alcohol free

  *   Camp

  *   Booking is confirmed so we can start doing itinerary once we have a site map so we know what we’ll be doing. Edward has emailed them asking for that and is now waiting for them to get back to us.
  *   People need to do food training
  *   need more feedback


3. Screenings


Book Club

  *   next book club is Thursday. The next one is May 4th which is the day we’re going to pantomime. We need to contact leah about what she wants to do. Simon will do so.

We need to start screenings more at 5 because better for people just finishing classes. problems for public transport, issue for freshers and other people. 5 will be a benchmark.

  *   Monday - Lucifer w/Simon
  *   Tuesday - Labyrinth and Dark Crystal w/Tim - Anzac Day,
  *   Wednesday - Holy Musical Batman
  *   Thursday - Dreamworks biggest mistakes w/ Finley shitposting,
  *   Friday - Twilight zone or mystery science theatre,


4. Book Removal


Book Appeals


One appeal for Dianetics due to us not having a lot of Hubbard books. Th appeal says that the book is not completely religious and  they do not want Unisfa to purge religion in total. We won’t need to address this this week. We will vote on this next week.

Books for Removal List


Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk

  *   Book about a teenage girl is physically disfigured and experiences the social isolation that comes from it, explores identity issues,
  *   It is a product of its time
  *   Motion to add to book removal list library - motion passes unanimously


Books to be Removed from Library


Nose picking for Pleasure: A Handy Guide by Roland Flickett

  *   no appeals, no discussion points
  *   Motion to remove from library - motion passes unanimously

Cloudstreet by Tim Winton

  *   no appeals
  *   Motion to remove from library - motion passes unanimously

City of God by Cecelia Holland

  *   no appeals,
  *   Motion to remove from library - motion passes unanimously

Black Sunday by Thomas Harris

  *   no appeals,
  *   Motion to remove from library - motion passes unanimously


Hannibal by Thomas Harris

  *   is technically impossible for Hannibal to exist based on psychological reasons, is implied to be more magical realism. is a staple in horror genre. lends itself greatly to sci-fi/fantasy books, highly referenced in popular culture. on the edge,
  *   Motion to remove from library - motion passes with 6 votes for, 2 votes against and 1 abstain.


5. Facebook Groups


  *   There are too many people to invite to events
  *   separate unisfa persona that friends everyone.
  *   Edward thinks that we should have waited until the committee meeting to make the persona.
  *   people can opt out of events by not friending it.
  *   everyone can access it on committee to add people and invite people to events. don’t want it to be a faceless committee thing. long term solution
  *   Andre has been spoken to in regards to pantomime one and it seems to be working well for them.
  *   we’ll see how it works, and then see about screening pages.
  *   will only invite people who want to go to events.
  *   currently called Unisfa Deepthought, linked to deep thought email and should be good for committee handover, will need changes to handover booklet
  *   Annique will add all of committee so we can have a look and monitor it beforehand.
  *   Kurt has made a quick bio. It is good.


6. Tenancy


We have new cupboards and we like them as it looks good for us. They are very deep and big and clean. We will need to re-evaluate what we put outside. Like the wheeled trolley that used to be donation trolley but doesn’t fit anymore so we may need to repurpose it. We also need to change return box as well. We do not have bench space anymore so need to change things.



7. General Business


SOC Meeting

  *   casey has broken her arm which has slowed down submissions. But a new guy started yesterday so hopefully it is speeding up.
  *   We can now sell merchandise through second hand bookshop
  *   There is student engagement program so we need to get dates so we know about high schoolers infiltrating our uni ground. We can opt in to have our club promoted to young people. We are keen for this to relate to the youth.
  *   social justice week  is on week 2 semester 2
  *   SOC is trying to fix the mailing list


SOC Mailing List

  *   said they’ll compile a list and send emails to us about fixing our emails.
  *   Yet this defeats the purpose so they’ll get back to us


Finley’s Positive Thought of the Week: Fin loves us all and we love Finley. They also recommend a documentary.


Finish: 5:56pm
