  • 1.  ASIG Fall Forum: Framework for Access Services Librarianship Conversation

    The ACRL Access Services Interest Group will meet on Wednesday, November 8, 2023 at 1:00 pm CDT to discuss the ACRL Framework for Access Services Librarianship. The interest group will be working to expand the framework as a tool for training, advocacy, and defining Access Services as central to the intellectual craft of librarianship. Please join us for an overview of the Framework, a conversation about how to accomplish the mentioned goals, and other additions that would benefit all who work in Access Services.

    Hi Victoria,

    Will there be a recording of this meeting available to those who register? I can't make it due to a personal conflict, but would like to hear about what people are thinking. Thank you!

    Hi Dawn,

    Thanks for a great question! The current conveners of ASIG will be taking notes and we are planning to share them with the rest of the Access Services community. We do not plan on sharing a recording in order to make all attendees feel welcome to share their thoughts and ideas. I hope this answer is helpful! Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

    All the best,

    Tori
