“Why don’t faculty & staff
use what we have?”
Integrating Technical Services
Into Liaison Activities
Courtney McAllister
Electronic Resources Librarian
Daniel Library, The Citadel
Liaison Work
Designed to…
➔ Establish and build relationships
➔Foster communication
➔Ensure library resources and
services are in sync with the campus
2
Identity Politics
➔Which areas on campus are assigned
a liaison?
➔Who serves as a liaison?
➔What library departments are
represented in liaison programs?
3
@ Daniel Library
➔Which areas on campus were
assigned a liaison?
◆ Academic departments
➔Who served as a liaison?
◆ Reference and Instruction librarians
➔What library departments were
represented in liaison programs?
◆ Reference and Instruction
4
5
We had this
The Dilemma
Instead of this
Problems
➔We weren’t communicating evenly
or effectively across campus
◆ Completely unaware of needs and usage
beyond academic departments
◆ Campus personnel were paying for their
OWN subscriptions to resources they could
have accessed through the library
6
Problems
➔The collections were an
afterthought for liaisons
◆ Liaisons did not have a firm grasp on the
collection as a whole
◆ More focus on events and social
relationships
◆ Missed opportunities to advocate for the
collection, bolster usage, and solicit
feedback
7
Why does this matter to TS?
➔So much of our budget/energy goes
towards these resources
◆ If the campus doesn’t know we even offer
them, how can they utilize them?
◆ How do we maintain alignment between our
collections and campus needs without
healthy communication?
8
Unchartered
Territories
Shaking up the liaison program
9
Operational Liaison Program
10
➔Inspired by Candice Dahl’s article
◆ “Library liaison with non-academic units: A new
application for a traditional model”
➔Liaison from Technical Services assigned to
non-academic departments
◆ Career Center, Academic Support Center, Registrar
➔Integrated TS into liaison planning and
development
TS Involvement Strategies
11
➔Internal promotion of library resources
◆ Improving familiarity w/collections
➔Better feedback on resources and services
◆ Trials, purchase requests, etc.
➔Clarification on collections decision-making
◆ Recurring costs vs. one-time purchases
◆ Assessment matrix - available as Google Doc
General purpose/benefit
Quality of metadata
Compatible with
discovery?
Authentication options
Supports which depts or
programs?
Replaces existing sub?
Requested by faculty?
12
Assessment Matrix
Details on metrics
Platform design (A to F)
Contract required?
Licensing quirks
MARC record/metadata
schedule/process
Current customers
Consortial discount?
Other comments
TS Involvement Strategies
13
➔Gathering syllabi
◆ Useful for instruction and collection development
➔Regularly sharing usage data and other TS
statistics w/ liaisons
◆ Most frequent discovery search terms, top used
databases/journals
➔More targeted subscription promotions
◆ Partnering with IEEE chapter on campus
Unintended
Benefits
Addressing staff/faculty schism
Staff matter!! But they often get
overlooked in higher ed
14
Looking Forward
Exciting opportunities for the
future.
15
1. Improving
communication
between liaisons,
staff/faculty, and ALL
library departments
2. Targeting staff needs
3. Tracking impact on
our usage/service
statistics

"Why don't faculty & staff use what we have?": Integrating Technical Services into Liaison Activities

  • 1. “Why don’t faculty & staff use what we have?” Integrating Technical Services Into Liaison Activities Courtney McAllister Electronic Resources Librarian Daniel Library, The Citadel
  • 2. Liaison Work Designed to… ➔ Establish and build relationships ➔Foster communication ➔Ensure library resources and services are in sync with the campus 2
  • 3. Identity Politics ➔Which areas on campus are assigned a liaison? ➔Who serves as a liaison? ➔What library departments are represented in liaison programs? 3
  • 4. @ Daniel Library ➔Which areas on campus were assigned a liaison? ◆ Academic departments ➔Who served as a liaison? ◆ Reference and Instruction librarians ➔What library departments were represented in liaison programs? ◆ Reference and Instruction 4
  • 5. 5 We had this The Dilemma Instead of this
  • 6. Problems ➔We weren’t communicating evenly or effectively across campus ◆ Completely unaware of needs and usage beyond academic departments ◆ Campus personnel were paying for their OWN subscriptions to resources they could have accessed through the library 6
  • 7. Problems ➔The collections were an afterthought for liaisons ◆ Liaisons did not have a firm grasp on the collection as a whole ◆ More focus on events and social relationships ◆ Missed opportunities to advocate for the collection, bolster usage, and solicit feedback 7
  • 8. Why does this matter to TS? ➔So much of our budget/energy goes towards these resources ◆ If the campus doesn’t know we even offer them, how can they utilize them? ◆ How do we maintain alignment between our collections and campus needs without healthy communication? 8
  • 10. Operational Liaison Program 10 ➔Inspired by Candice Dahl’s article ◆ “Library liaison with non-academic units: A new application for a traditional model” ➔Liaison from Technical Services assigned to non-academic departments ◆ Career Center, Academic Support Center, Registrar ➔Integrated TS into liaison planning and development
  • 11. TS Involvement Strategies 11 ➔Internal promotion of library resources ◆ Improving familiarity w/collections ➔Better feedback on resources and services ◆ Trials, purchase requests, etc. ➔Clarification on collections decision-making ◆ Recurring costs vs. one-time purchases ◆ Assessment matrix - available as Google Doc
  • 12. General purpose/benefit Quality of metadata Compatible with discovery? Authentication options Supports which depts or programs? Replaces existing sub? Requested by faculty? 12 Assessment Matrix Details on metrics Platform design (A to F) Contract required? Licensing quirks MARC record/metadata schedule/process Current customers Consortial discount? Other comments
  • 13. TS Involvement Strategies 13 ➔Gathering syllabi ◆ Useful for instruction and collection development ➔Regularly sharing usage data and other TS statistics w/ liaisons ◆ Most frequent discovery search terms, top used databases/journals ➔More targeted subscription promotions ◆ Partnering with IEEE chapter on campus
  • 14. Unintended Benefits Addressing staff/faculty schism Staff matter!! But they often get overlooked in higher ed 14
  • 15. Looking Forward Exciting opportunities for the future. 15 1. Improving communication between liaisons, staff/faculty, and ALL library departments 2. Targeting staff needs 3. Tracking impact on our usage/service statistics
  • 16. Any questions? You can find me at: cmcallis@citadel.edu @librarylemur 16 Thank you!
