Abstract

LSU Subject Liaisons' Workshop Barbara Tierney, Facilitator          Jan. 7, 2015

Introductions:    Let’s begin by focusing on the most important element of today’s program----all of you!  Congratulations to each of you for representing LSU Libraries as Subject Liaisons.

Would each one of you introduce yourself, describe your current liaison assignment, and express at least one “Subject Liaison service model” question or concern that you would like us to address today.  We will list each concern that you share on this handout. 

After the introductions and sharing of concerns, we will proceed with our morning presentations on the Subject Liaison service model.  During these presentations let’s all be on the lookout for any solutions/strategies that are mentioned which may be relevant to the concerns that you have expressed.

During our afternoon “Subject Liaison Forum” we will break into small groups with each group focusing on 2-3 concerns and working to identify any relevant solutions/strategies that might address these concerns.  After 45 minutes of small group discussions each group will designate a spokesperson to report- out their suggested possible solutions/strategies to the larger group.
