ALCTS Creative Ideas in Technical Services (CITS) Interest Group program

Time: Sunday, January 26, 2014, 3:00 – 4:00

Location: PCC-105B

Join us for round table discussions with your colleagues to share 
creative ideas in Technical Services. Topics include:

1. The potential of digital objects and collections to open alternative 
paths for Technical Services librarians and present new avenues for us 
to re-assert our relevancy in the digital age. Table moderated by Rachel 
Jaffe and Stephanie Hess from Binghamton University Libraries.

2. Creating a SWAT (Strategic Work and Tactics) Team to tackle backlogs 
and interdepartmental projects. Table will be moderated by Liz Woolcott 
and Susanne Clement from Utah State University.

3. As library resources are strained and missions expand, opportunities 
to work outside one’s traditional role may be on the rise. This table 
will focus on successful collaborations between technical services and 
public services. Librarians from both technical and public services are 
encouraged to participate.

This table will be moderated by Stephen Brooks from The University of 
North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
