Next Steps
A little homage to the beach before moving on!

What questions do we need to answer?
Should the archives organization be a stand-alone group or operate under the auspices of another organization? Name? Bylaws?
How should we communicate? Meet? Should we create subcommittees to address specific issues? Do we need a liaison to the NCCC System Office? What type of professional development is needed? Who can
provide it?
