2:30 pm: Silos No More: Harness Library Wide Teams for Success
Presented by: Judy Pinger, Assistant Director of I.T. Technical Service and Collections
Milwaukee Public Library
Milwaukee, WI


​ Library work has been traditionally organized into silos.  At many institutions, public services, technical services and administration departments may often be working independently of one another to achieve similar goals. Shifting trends have demonstrated that organizations need to adapt to the current needs and patterns of patrons in order to successfully be nimble in today’s fast-paced information environment.  Given this new reality, the traditional library setup can sometimes create unneeded barriers to interdepartmental collaboration.   This webinar will discuss the benefits to reducing library silos by bringing together collaborative work teams to foster innovation.
