Further discussion topics with an open forum will include: developing 
best practices; partnering and collaboration with various library and 
non-library groups on campus; the changing liaison model; what new roles 
are appearing for liaisons; how are the changes being developed and 
managed; and what types of assessments and tools being put in place to 
measure the success of these new programs.
