LAUC Southern Regional Meeting on LAUC Divisional Participation in
Library Re-organization
Thursday, June 19, noon-2p.m.
Orbach Science Library, Room 240
University of California, Riverside 92507
This
meeting follows on a similar event, and will address many of the same issues
and concerns, held recently at the 2014 LAUC Spring Assembly at UC Davis. Many
LAUC members at Southern campuses, who were not able to attend the Davis event,
have expressed interest in sharing experiences and dialoguing about matters
associated with current/projected re-organizations of their libraries.
Relatedly, discussion of major strategic planning efforts which have already
resulted in major changes in library roles or service provision will occur.
Speakers
from UCI, UCR, UCSD, and UCSB will begin by addressing their experiences on
their campuses.
A
panel discussion, encouraging audience participation, followed.
