What to do next????

I'm pondering how to proceed next with formulating a plan to gather information and form a consensus with the Ad Hoc group. What question(s) should we address next? These are the kinds of things we need to decide.
  • Original assumption is/was that we replace two web products with one, i.e., Research Shortcuts and W3 pages. Should we continue with this assumption as the first step?
  • If so, then we need to develop a list of the ResearchGuides needed.
    • Will that be the entire W3 list?
    • Or, will it be some kind of hybrid? For example, will we have a libguide for each health sciences area?
    • Or, will we have one guide that is health sciences and a tab for each area. (I know that somewhere I've seen an example of subtabs. Aha! I found one.http://libguides.acadiau.ca/content.php?pid=1254)
  • After this first group of things, we may want to use the ResearchGuides for other things like documentation guides or other study guides.
  • Should I be this vague with the Ad Hoc group or should we develop a firmer list of questions amongst this committee and then approach the Ad Hoc group?
