Learning Objectives

Articulate the challenges of communicating electronic resource cuts and changes to users and stakeholders, identify strategies to inform and prepare users and stakeholders during a major resource transition.

This presentation will share the challenges NC LIVE encountered when communicating a major change to the consortium’s resource lineup, and strategies to ease these transitions.
