Collections Strategies without Subject Selectors: Restructuring and Rethinking Collections Services
Conference Track
3. Organizational Strategies
Abstract
University of Houston Libraries implemented an organizational restructure that reclassified subject liaisons as collections or teaching librarians in two new units. I will discuss the new collections department structure, the rationale for this approach, change management strategies, and how the new approach enables more effective, holistic, and collaborative collections work.
