CALL FOR PANELISTS FOR AN ONLINE DISCUSSION ON "REORGANIZING FOR THE FUTURE" - ACRL ULS Committee on the Future of University Libraries


CALL FOR PANELISTS FOR AN ONLINE DISCUSSION ON "REORGANIZING FOR THE FUTURE" - ACRL ULS Committee on the Future of University Libraries

Are you a ?library of the future?? Do you have a story about how you successfully reorganized to generate efficiencies in services or reallocation of staff to allow infrastructure changes that support the future? Or maybe you have a story about how a failure to create efficiencies or reallocation resulted in a different reorganization model that was successful? Either way, we need your stories!

The ACRL ULS Committee on the Future of University Libraries is planning an online discussion on the topic ?reorganizing for the future.? As university libraries seek to create new services for the future within the current higher education environment, we will likely need to look to our existing resources in order to prepare the way for these new services. What efficiencies can we find in our operations? What tough decisions to modify or eliminate existing services should we consider? How can reorganization free up resources to help us move forward?

We are looking for stories about efficiency, priorities, opportunities, constraints, aspirations. Is your story inspiring? We are seeking panelists to share their reorganization stories and respond to audience questions in an online panel to be offered some time in late spring or summer.

To be considered, please send your story (300 words or less) to John Blosser [email protected] by March 31, 2014.
