Dear colleagues:

At ALA Annual, the ALCTS Technical Services Workflow Efficiency Interest 
Group will be hosting a discussion to explore how the economy and budget 
cuts are affecting libraries, the strategies being employed to deal with 
the economic down-turn, and new priorities and initiatives that have 
emerged. Two panelists will join us: Lisa Barricella of East Carolina 
University and Mary Konkel of College of DuPage. Below you’ll find some 
of the questions we’ll be considering. Please join us on Monday, July 13 
from 1:30 to 3:00 at the Chicago Hilton, Conference Room 4C. We’re 
looking forward to hearing about your experiences and ideas.

What strategies have worked in your library to cope with the economic 
down-turn and the accompanying reduced and unpredictable budgets?
What has not worked?
What priorities have changed?

Are there initiatives moving forward at a quicker pace because of the 
crisis?
What projects or processes have you had to abandon because of budget 
crunches and shifting priorities?

Sincerely,

Robin Champieux
