The ALCTS Technical Services Managers in Academic Libraries Interest
Group and the ACRL Technical Services Interest Group welcome proposals
to be the featured speaker at the groups’ joint meeting during the 2014
ALA Annual Conference. This meeting, scheduled for 8:30-10:00 a.m.
Saturday, June 28th, will focus on issues facing technical services
librarians in academic libraries.
The speaker will deliver a brief (15 minute) overview of those issues in
the form of an extended lightning talk, then participate in roundtable
discussions at which the attendees can follow up on those ideas. The
proposed topics for the roundtables include: promotion and tenure (2
tables, one for those with faculty status and one for those without
faculty status); research and publication; tips for supervising
librarians who are seeking P&T and/or who are doing research;
collaborative research and publication; the continuing issue of silos;
service opportunities for TS librarians (geared toward younger/newer
librarians); general issues facing new technical services librarians.
To be considered for this session, please email a proposal, in .doc or
