The [[FileMedia:Draft_C4L-CLIRDLF_MoUFinal_C4L_CLIR_MOU.pdf|Draft Memorandum of Understandingbetween Code4Lib and CLIR/DLF]]was approved by a community vote that ran from 1-15 March 2018 by a margin of 154-4. The MOU was signed on 16 March 2018.
==Draft Memorandum of Understanding = Text = [[Media:Draft_C4L-CLIRDLF_MoU.pdf|Draft Memorandum of Understanding]] ==== ''What is a Memorandum of Understanding? How is it different from a contract?'' ====:: A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU ) is a written agreement between parties that formally states their intention to cooperate, and outlines the requirements, roles, and responsibilities of each party in order to clarify how the parties will work together. An MOU is different from a contract in that an MOU is not legally binding or enforceable. For this reason, an MOU can be used to clarify roles and responsibilities in situations in which the parties working together may not be legally recognized as official or separate entities. Therefore an MOU can be used to create a specific agreement and outline terms of cooperation for situations in which a binding contract is not possible. :: More information on MOUs is available at the link below. :: Article on MOUs vs. Contracts, by Change Lab Solutions, a nonprofit organization that focuses on public health advocacy: https://www.changelabsolutions.org/sites/default/files/MOU-vs-Contracts_FINAL_20120117.pdf === Text of the draft Memorandum of Understanding between CLIR/DLF and the Code4Lib community ===
(This text version is provided as a convenience; the PDF version should be considered authoritative in case of discrepancy.)
* Maintain a yearly balance of a minimum of $25,000 in the C4L account managed by CLIR/DLF. CLIR/DLF would appreciate but not require acknowledgment as fiscal sponsor on C4L conference materials and websites. In the event that no LPC emerges from the C4L Community in a given year, CLIR/DLF will bear no responsibility to organize the annual conference. Either party may terminate this MoU after good-faith settling of accounts and with adequate notice to prevent disruption of current conference planning.
