Established in June 2000, the primary purpose of the State Superintendent's Library Information Technology Advisory Committee is to advise the superintendent and the department's Division for Libraries, Technology, and Community Learning on library and information technology issues and division technology programs and initiatives.

Some specific purposes of the committee:

Periodically review the Wisconsin Library Technology Strategic Plan
Assist and advise the division in developing priorities on the use of federal LSTA funds for technology-related grant categories and projects
Assist and advise the division in developing priorities and proposals for state funding requests related to technology
Work in subcommittees to provide advice and assistance on specific division projects and programs (subcommittees may have some members not on LITAC)
Work in cooperation with library constituencies and organizations that may have their own technology planning processes
Work to promote awareness of and support for technology-related programs and initiatives among the library community, key stakeholders, and the public

The committee has members representative of the state's library community and other key stakeholders. The committee usually meets three times annually, and all meetings are open to the library community and the general public. Meetings are held at the Reference and Loan Library in Madison.
