Top Concerns of Technical Services Staff

Abstract

The annual conversation group sponsored by the Technical Services Interest Group provides an opportunity for library workers in technical services areas—or in any area of library work—to discuss anything that anyone considers a top concern for technical services staff. Participation by persons other than those in technical services area is encouraged, since the work in technical services ultimately influences work in all other areas of the library. Because the main concerns of individuals vary from year to year, the topics discussed also change—although there are some perennial topics. This year, the main topic was migrations of integrated library systems.
