I have uploaded:
1) An abridged pdf of our user survey tool. The full length tool calls out each of our ~30 cores individually and asks the same standardized questions. The survey is sent to all research-intensive faculty, staff and students Dec 1st and is open through Jan 15th. The feedback for a given core is compiled and sent around the end of January.
2) A copy of last year's core report template. We ask each core to compile a document that covers the content in the template for the previous calendar year. Most cores maintain a living document version of this deliverable and update annually. The report is delivered to the institution in Feb/March each year and discussed at the evaluation meeting along with their budgetary and commitment needs.
3) The core evaluation matrix used to comment on strengths or areas of improvement for the next year.
Excited dig through the folder for additional examples we can use!

Everyone – Thank you for attending the meeting today. To summarize, today we discussed handling the core revenue/surplus, review of uniform guidance (potentially both topics will be part of sessions in next year's meeting. Did Nicole agree to do a poster on the core revenue/surplus question?).
Then we moved on to FASEB recommendation and focused on item 3 (core management and evaluation). The next step is create a questionnaire/sections document on the topic.
I created a shared folder for us to upload whatever relevant documents/info that we currently use for our cores - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BAIgno4duhoGg71GOgZ0VSbMmAzd9_7e?usp=sharing
To do before next meeting:
- Upload any materials you may have that is relevant to the topic above to the folder.
- Review the shared google folder (https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/0ABYkdiTpOJHjUk9PVA) to see what existing documents/materials might be helpful to us.
Hopefully, in the next meeting we can hopefully identify specific sections and assign specific topics to each.
Thanks
Raj
