Minn-Stf Board Meeting
August 22, 1991

As far as I am concerned the meeting started at 7:59 (I was late).
Anything that happened before that was a vicious rumor.

RUNE: The board has a resignation from DavE Romm and Jeanne Mealy in hand.
The most formulated rumors of bids to take it over include: Tom Juntenen is
interested but doesn't know yet what the Board wants in a bid. Jeanne Mealy,
Lee Pelton and Peter Hentges are interested, and Garth Danielson (one of the
original "Rune Boys") would like to make sure it got out but with different
editors each issue including at a minimum Ken Fletcher and Jeff Schalles. He
has legitimate cheap copying.
	There followed a discussion of what the various bidders in the room
had to offer and what questions the Board was going to use to gather
information about their proposals. (Details, What do you want? Who? How do you
involve the club more?, What do you mean cheaper repro?) They will make a
decision at the next meeting.

"The spirit was willing, but the schedules were weak." Jeanne


LiBraRy: With the help of Stippleapa the Minn-Stf Library at Don and Margo's
was cleaned up. Books were put out of boxes on to the shelves (except
mysteries and non-genre) and there is some system to the way the anthologies
are shelved, although no one is quite sure what it is. . . They are trying to
decide whether they want some sort of paper card catalogue or an on-line one
or both.

Other: Doug Friauf will host the Minneapolis in 73 party at Chicon. The Board
had previously authorized $200 for this.

Carol is concerned about whether she has any money since we have not heard
from Minicon Treasury yet. . .

Joyce Scrivner wanted to know if Minn-Stf would be interested in publishing a
history of the Minnesota Fantasy Society being written by Red Boggs. Since the
Board has no extra money this year and only 4 of 7 parts are completed, they
suggest that she check back next year.

The Lecture Series seems to be on hold. . .

The SF Oral History Association is looking for tapes of SF radio shows or
interviews or anything. Would Minn-Stf be agreeable to their using any such
tapes that we have in the library? There was no objection raised.

Next Meeting: Thursday September 19 at 7:30 pm at Toad Hall. Agenda items
include, Rune, Minicon 93 [sic] and Victor's proposal (if he comes.)
