Acquisitions and Serials in Evolution

Changes in Technical Services staffing, training, and prioritization of 
workloads as libraries turn their focus increasingly to electronic and 
digital resources

How do we as managers  develop the necessary mindset to lead change as 
libraries move in new directions?

What are the new skills current technical services staff will need in 
the next few years and how can we provide training for them?

DDA, social tagging, and other end-user driven trends affect our work. 
What are the implications for the future of tech services?
