ALA Meeting Announcement: ALCTS Technical Services Managers in Academic
Libraries Interest Group, 8:00-10:00 AM, Saturday, Jan. 24, Elevation
Room, Crowne Plaza Denver City Center
Technical Services Managers in Academic Libraries Interest Group
(formerly the Technical Services Administrators of Medium-Sized Research
Libraries Interest Group, or the “Medium Heads”) will meet from
8:00-10:00 AM, Saturday, Jan. 24, 2009 in the Elevation Room of the
Crowne Plaza Denver City Center. Our discussion topic is “Coping with
Cuts: Handling Budget Reductions in Technical Services”. Groups will
consider staffing issues, communication issues, workload issues, and how
to deal with possible layoffs during economic hard times. Although
uncomfortable topics, they are some which many of us have faced or will
be facing.
Please note: we have changed both our name and our meeting time. We
welcome those who have an interest in technical services management in
college and university libraries, with no rules about who is
“medium-sized” or who is an “administrator”. We apologize right now for
the 8 AM time, but we hope it will lessen our competition with some
other great sessions that take place later on Sat.
Also please note: the most capable Elizabeth Brice and Linda Lomker will
team up as substitute chairs for this meeting, while I stay behind and
“cope with cuts”. A big thank-you to both of them for their willingness
to stand in for me.
We (they) hope to see you there!
