ALCTS webinar: Floating Collections: Building on Your Patrons' Horizons



Date: September 21, 2011

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 2pm Eastern, 1pm 
Central, noon Mountain, and 11am Pacific Time.



Description: What are the benefits of a floating collection? What is 
involved and what is the impact on the role of Reader's Advisor and 
patron expectations. This session covers the answers to these questions 
and lays out the steps involved in starting a floating collection. The 
many variables that need to be considered, how to sell this new 
collection concept to both staff and the public, and all the excitement 
floating collections generate will also be discussed.



Who Should Attend: Anyone with responsibilities for collection 
development will find this session of interest.



Presenter: Dawn Peters has been with the Buffalo and Erie County Public 
Library for 27 years. Currently she is the Library Director for the 
Orchard Park Public Library. Previously she managed the Support Services 
Department of the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library which included 
the Acquisitions, Catalog and Processing Departments. She was also 
directly involved with the Library system's migration to a new 
Integrated Library System.
