1.8 m of textual records
The McGill Association of University Teachers Librarians Section (MAUT-LS) was founded in 1996. The chairs of the sections have included Marc Richard, 1996-97, Elaine Yarosky, 1997-98, Jane Aitkens, 1998-99, Pat Riva, 1999-2000, Louisa Piatti, 2000-01, Chris Oliver, 2001-02, Darlene Canning, 2002-03, Joan Hobbins, 2003-04, and Daniel Boyer, 2004-05. The MAUT-LS was a successor body to the Association of McGill University Librarians (AMUL) founded in 1971. In 1996 AMUL merged with MAUT, the organization that represents professors in negotiations with the University. The goal of MAUT-LS is to negotiate working conditions for librarians at McGill. Librarians received academic status in 1974 and may be eligible for tenure and sabbatical leaves. The results of the negotiations are compiled in a handbook of regulations and policies for academic and librarian staff.
The fonds was directly transferred to the McGill University Archives in June of 2009 from the MAUT-LS storage space in the McLennan Library Building of McGill University.
The fonds concerns the association’s interaction with members and negotiations with the McGill University administration. The majority of the records concern internal committee meetings, research on issues, with much smaller amount of records consisting of executive correspondence and newsletters.
