The document discusses how technical services departments in university libraries are changing to support digital publishing initiatives. It finds that while technical services departments are actively supporting digital publishing, many of the functions traditionally handled by technical services are now being managed by other library units. The study used surveys and interviews to analyze how libraries at the forefront of digital publishing are utilizing technical services and how changes are implemented. Key findings indicate technical services roles are evolving and departments require strategic training to take on new responsibilities in supporting the growth of digital publishing.
