Dear Core-TSD colleagues,
It was lovely to have the Annual Open Meeting last month! Big kudos and thank you to Claire DeMarco for her leadership in convening Core-TSD and creating a welcoming and engaged space and place for us to discuss tech services issues. Continuing this trajectory, I’m excited to announce that Jennifer Roper will be Vice Chair for Core-TSD. (Yay! Thank you Jennifer!)
Please consider sharing an annual report. I find these reports to be incredibly helpful internally and externally to document and share common challenges and opportunities. It makes all the heavy lifting feel a little less hard. If you’re interested, feel free to email to this group - please include your institution name in the email subject line. Alternatively, upload to Core-TSD’s Connect pages (note that documents posted here are open to all Core members, and instructions below*). For example see UW and UVA reports.
Best,
Denise
P.S. *Thanks Dracine Hodges for providing written instructions for CCDO which I’ve modified for Core-TSD!
