>SPREADING THE WORD: Making Decisions and Sharing Bad News about Library
>Budget Cuts
>
>The current national economic crisis is seriously impacting budgets in all
>kinds of libraries. What are the best ways to communicate how our services
>and collections are being affected? How do we make difficult decisions about
>what to buy and what to eliminate? What are the best ways to explain these
>choices to our library communities and library colleagues? What are the best
>ways to respond to user comments, concerns and complaints?
>
>Participants will share their strategies for dealing with these challenges
>both inside and outside of their libraries. All conference registrants are
>invited to attend this lively, timely and informative discussion. Please
>contact Qiana Johnson (q-johnson_at_northwestern.edu) or Allison Cogwill
>(acowgill_at_csufresno.edu) for additional information.
