Interoperability Focus: Advisory Committee

The Interoperability Focus Advisory Committee comprises members drawn from a range of information providing disciplines, including libraries, museums, and the archival community.

It is recognised that members of the committee give their valuable time to support the work of Interoperability Focus, and it is intended that these Terms of Reference should serve to clarify their role and to ensure a two-way dialogue of benefit both to Interoperability Focus and to the members.

• The Interoperability Focus Advisory Committee serves as a forum for exchange of ideas between those involved in developing aspects of interoperable services.
• Through discussions within the committee, Interoperability Focus can be targetted towards issues in need of special attention, ensuring greatest community benefit from the initiative.
• Through members of the committee and their contacts, the work of Interoperability Focus and related projects can be disseminated into a wide range of communities and organisations.
• Through input from members of the committee, Interoperability Focus — and other committee members — can be kept aware of relevant developments in a wide range of communities and organisations.
