Abstract

ABSTRACT: The presenters described different experiences in public and technical services at their respective organizations. These experiences included a career shift, launching e-book initiatives, and the work of a solo librarian. Although each presenter described a unique experience in terms of the nature of their work and institution, they each emphasized the benefits of working toward a collaborative and cooperative culture among different library or institutional departments.
