Hello All
I posted a question awhile ago asking for examples of libraries that had
their technical services departments moved off-site. Thank you to those
who responded, always looking for more examples!
My next question is how would you argue that Technical Services is indeed a
public service? I found a very good article here
http://www.aallnet.org/main-menu/Publications/spectrum/Archives/Vol-16/No-2/technical-services.pdf
Our technical services department (Acq, Cataloging and ERM) has been told
we are candidates to move off-site because we do not interact directly with
students and faculty. I am arguing that we do interact, indirectly. What
does everyone else think?
