Bringing perspectives from across the network to help guide SAN.
Advisory Group
About the Advisory Group
Established in 2018, the SAN Advisory Group provides insight and recommendations to help inform SAN programs, priorities, and initiatives.
The eight-member group represents a range of institutions and organizations, bringing different perspectives and experiences from across the SAN network.
The Advisory Group meets throughout the year to discuss issues affecting the network, share feedback, and identify opportunities to strengthen SAN’s work. Professionals from institutions and organizations in the SAN network are eligible to be nominated and do not need to serve as a designated SAN Coordinator.
Advisory Group members serve two-year terms, with representation across different institution and organization types.
