Faculty Development Allocations Committee (FDAC)
The Faculty Development Allocations Committee makes recommendations to the University Librarian on funding for faculty requests to support research and/or service activities. Allocation of funds and granting of leave time are approved by the University Librarian or her designate. Faculty development funds shall be allocated in support of research and service activities of the faculty, as outlined in the "Criteria & Procedures for Appointment, Promotion, Tenure, and Non-Retention," [PDF] in order to promote the development of individual faculty members and to advance the overall performance of the library faculty in these areas.
