Review packets are assembled through the collaboration of the librarian up for review, their direct supervisor, and EUL HR. The calendar below provides a detailed summary of the process, highlighting important dates and the responsible parties. The word ‘packet’ refers to all of the assembled materials for the librarian under review.
Each year the review calendar is modified slightly from the outline in the Handbook to accommodate weekends and holidays, but the general timing and process remains the same from year to year. Appointment renewal and promotion-in-rank reviews are conducted annually by the PRC.
Please see the Forms and Additional Resources tab on the left for additional information.
