Hi Heather, I don't think you're an outlier. Our online Policy Library is not available as a handbook in PDF format.

Even when manuals were our standard practice, we certainly did not have just one - we had one for every topic and employee category. Since we adopted the policy library model, we have largely dismantled many manuals. Some manuals do still exist but we see them as topic-specific pointers to policy woven with pieces of useful information that typically also resides on unit websites. We're right there with you!

He stated a requirement by NSF to submit a pdf of the institution's Handbook as part of a grant application. We've never had ours in a pdf, but the caller was quick to tell me we are the only university that doesn't follow this practice. Let's see a show of hands. How many of you have the entire Handbook as ONE pdf? Am I the outlier? I'm not opposed to creating one, but it would need to be at a slower time of the year. Thanks, Heather Heather M.
