The User Forum Members' Agreement
The User Forum’s mission is to represent the interests of all existing and potential users of UK Legal Deposit. Its role is to support the understanding of different user needs and perspectives, to communicate these to the Legal Deposit Libraries, to inform and provide feedback on developments in Legal Deposit infrastructure and services, and influence decision making.
The Forum is an official Legal Deposit group made up of user representatives with a range of views and backgrounds. The following are key values which will underpin the successful operation of the Forum. They reflect the intentions set out in the Forum’s Equality Impact Assessment (EqIA).
Unacceptable behaviour should be reported to the Chair of the User Forum.
The Chair of the Legal Deposit Libraries Reader Services Committee (currently Peter Dudley, Trinity College Dublin) is available for members of the Forum to contact regarding breaches of the above key values.
Facilitation may be required to establish these key values at the point of convening the User Forum – to be agreed with the Chair of the User Forum.
