            Business Managers, and Others Concerned:

I am writing to update you on the “Standards for University Operations Handbook” that was distributed in October 2001 and posted on the web.

On January 26, the online version was removed because the handbook is no longer up-to-date.  In its place, we have posted a notice ( http://ruweb.rutgers.edu/oldqueens/standards.html ) that refers employees to the University Policy Library and also provides department contact information.

For current policies and procedures to guide your daily business operations, please consult the University Policy Library at http://policies.rutgers.edu/.

I encourage you to provide a copy of this e-mail to all appropriate university employees in your area.  If you have questions or comments, please contact Debra Norman, senior executive associate, at dnorman@oldqueens.rutgers.edu or by calling 732/932-5661.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Karen Kavanagh
Executive Vice President for Administrative Affairs
