2007 Charge

The Architecture Committee (AC) is the key strategic review committee in NISO's standards development work. Bringing together a diverse group of industry leaders from each segment of NISO's membership, the Architecture Committee provides guidance to the NISO Board of Directors, NISO staff and the Topic Committees. The primary responsibility of the Architecture Committee is to provide strategic input, coordination, and audit review to the portfolio of NISO standards. It also provides a structure for bringing in new ideas and initiatives into the NISO standards process, as well as provides a forum for engaging the broader community.

The Architecture Committee advises the Board and NISO staff on the overall work at the strategic level. It works closely with a group of Topic Committees to proactively develop, promote the adoption of and maintain standards necessary to help the community create, exchange and use information. These Topic Committees manage discrete standards portfolios at a tactical level, including management of Working Groups and the review of new project proposals.
