To me this indicates that the Library Committee members were not willing to handle this contentious issue, and were unwilling to lay their principles on the line.

The whole meeting was pivoted around the staff attempting to find a way out, so that their arguments were set in rather exaggerated form of how and in what way Prof. Board would react and the consequences of that upon Council. The motions providing a very convenient way out.

It is interesting to note that the last point on the agenda was a discussion concerning an extra $10,000 needed to upgrade poor lighting and inadequate shelving on Floor 1 (periodicals). Come on. What are priorities! That money may come form a different fund — or does it?

The next step for the Students Association is to take the Library hours issue to University Council, with some direct action to show our determination, before then.
