Call for Participation: ALCTS Creative Ideas in Technical Services Discussion Group (ALA Midwinter)
The ALCTS Creative Ideas in Technical Services Discussion Group will hold its ALA Midwinter Meeting in Boston as follows:
MIDWINTER 2005 CREATIVE IDEAS DISCUSSION GROUP:
Sunday, January 16, 2005, 4:30-5:30 p.m. HCC (Hynes Convention Center) 103
Participants can choose from the eight table topics listed below. The co-chairs will provide a sheet of sub-topics to serve as a discussion guide for each topic.
The co-chairs for this year are: Kalyani Parthasarathy, University of New Orleans, and Jack Hall, University of Houston
VOLUNTEER FACILITATOR AND RECORDERS SOUGHT: We are seeking volunteers to facilitate and record the discussions at the individual topic tables. If you would like to facilitate or record, please send your information to Jack Hall at [email protected]. Indicate all the table topics you would be willing to work on (see list below) and whether you would rather facilitate or record. The co-chairs will appreciate flexibility on your part as we assign topics and roles.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF VOLUNTEERS: FACILITATORS guide the discussions on the topics at their tables, making sure that everybody is encouraged to participate, and seeing to it that the discussion ends in time for brief summary reports to be made to the group at large. RECORDERS take notes during the discussion and send a written report to the discussion group co-chairs soon after the conference is over. Those reports will form the basis of the report the co-chairs make to ALCTS, and the deadline is always very soon after the conference.
At individual tables, the facilitator and the recorder can come to an agreement over which of them will stand up for a couple of minutes at the end of the meeting and give a brief report on their table's discussion to all the attendees.
Individual table topics for discussions, which will last about 30 minutes:
1. Technical Services Organizational Structure
2. Technical Services Workflow
3. Relationship Between Technical Services and Public Services
4. Relationship Between Technical Services and the Systems Department
5. Gathering Collection and Usage Statistics
6. Electronic Resources
7. Acquisitions Workflow
8. Managing Authority Control
Discussion group co-chairs for 2005: Please send your volunteer interests to Jack Hall, and thanks in advance!
