The UConn Libraries Experience Some New Traits Divisions, departments and committees became areas and teams Supervisors were redirected toward user services and staff were asked to operate more independently Increased emphasis on librarians’ liaison assignments to academic departments, schools and colleges Some technical services staff were redirected toward user services Regional campus libraries became gateway libraries Increased emphasis on information technology and networked services Library staff became more client-centered and sensitive to usage information Cross-functional teams took on important library-wide initiatives like networked services, web publishing, user surveys, and digital collections planning

The UConn Libraries Experience Strategic Directions Academic Partnerships User Feedback Access Library Gateway Libraries Selection-to-Shelf Vendor Services Information Technology Undergraduate Learning Digital Collections Extending the Access Model Becoming a Learning Organization

The UConn Libraries Experience Highlights and Lowlights Highlights - 95% of the library staff got their first choice of area to work in; the rest got their second choice. A significant number of staff wanted to change where they worked in the library. Reorganization went smoothly with the Union. Lowlights - Many staff were uncomfortable during the chaos of going through change. Teaming didn’t “come naturally” across the different areas in the library. Organizational boundaries still exist to some extent.
