Club 1663 subclub, someone to take care of copying/labels/mailing
problems, minority recruitment and interface with minority
organizations, microfiche project of WIS records
Establish deadlines for newsletter input
Decide what WIS records to keep (eg. only 2-3 years of minutes)

correction
Another session of organizing records needs to be scheduled.

WIS bylaws to everyone on the steering committee along with the next

can be done with them (eg. microfiche).
