I am the co-editor of a regular column in the journal Against The Grain
called “Let’s Get Technical.” It focuses is on practical solutions to
problems in Technical Services. My colleague Alayne Mundt and I are seeking
guest authors. Some past columns have included the following:
*-**Moving Technical Services to an Off-site Space*
-Migrating to Alma Acquisitions: One Library’s Experience
*-The Care and Feeding of Local Data in a ILS Migration*
-Resource Management: Reorganizing to Reassess and Remain Sane
-One Library’s Collaborative Approach to Simplifying the Ordering Process
with Spreadsheets
Other ideas: Have you a problem that you solved by creating new workflows?
Do you have a big project that requires collaboration across units? And of
course, preparing for the Alma migration (I imagine all of us could write a
novel about that!)
Articles should be approximately 1300-1500 words, and may include
screenshots or other illustrations.
Please let me know if you have any ideas or questions to discuss.
