Invitation to CollectUn: Leadership in Technical Services Unconference

  • 1.  Invitation to CollectUn: Leadership in Technical Services Unconference

    Posted 3 days ago

    Hello CCDO colleagues-

    Please join us for CollectUn, a free, informal meeting of technical services library leadership! We've scheduled around the Charleston Conference, and will convene for a full-day (8:30 - 5 EST) in person at the College of Charleston's Addlestone Library on Tuesday, November 12, and for a half-day (12:30-4:30 EST/9:30-1:30 PST) on Zoom on Monday, December 16. You are free to attend either or both events–whether or not you also plan to attend the Charleston Conference. You can find more information, including links to RSVP, here.

    The intended audience for these programs is ADs/AULs (or roughly equivalent positions at institutions with different organizational structures) who are responsible for collections, technical services, and related areas, which describes just about everyone in CCDO. Please share the announcement with colleagues who might be interested as well.

    Best wishes,

    Miranda
