We should form a new committee to investigate whether we are actually the world's open stack selection of science fiction and fantasy. Currently operating under the name of Egocomm.

Motion to create Ummaccomm, short for Um, Actually Committee to determine if MITSFS really still has the largest walk in stacks of Science Fiction books. Also known as Egocomm. Seconded 14-3-3 plus Spehn Passes

Ummaccomm

Carissa added to head Ummaccomm. Some library at some university claims to have many more books than we do. Greendex has the number of books we have, we have 1.7 books per title because we have two copies of most things but not everything.
