The Creative Ideas in Technical Services Interest Group seeks discussion
facilitators for roundtable discussions for its meeting at ALA Midwinter
in 2015 held on February 1, 2015 at 3pm.
Housed within the Association for Library Collections and Technical
Services division of ALA, the Creative Ideas in Technical Services
Interest Group was created to provide a forum to discuss issues related
to the evolution of technical services. The group is especially
interested in considering interdependency between departments and the
ways in which technical services impacts, and is impacted by, technology.
Roundtable discussions are small, informal group discussions intended to
give participants the opportunity to network, discuss best practices,
and share information. Table size for roundtable discussions is capped
at 10 participants per table. Discussion facilitators are responsible
for identifying and developing a topic, creating discussion questions,
and facilitating a discussion at the American Library Association’s
Midwinter Meeting in Chicago in 2015.
Those interested in participating as a discussion facilitator should
submit a proposal that includes:
The topic you wish to explore. Topics should relate to acquisitions,
cataloging and classification, non-MARC metadata creation and
remediation, or preservation.
How the topic you wish to explore applies to the evolution of technical
services.
Three sample discussion questions.
Please submit your proposal by November 3, 2014 to Erin Leach at
eleach_at_uga.edu.
Thanks,
Erin Leach
