Why choose between presentations when you can come to one FEAST? Future & Emerging Access Services Trends (FEAST) gives you multiple speakers and topics in one 90 minute session. Hear practitioners and experts discuss what's new or just around the corner in circulation, shelving, reserves, interlibrary loan, offsite storage and more in short seven minute courses. Fresh and timely. Never frozen. There's always plenty to choose from at the FEAST!

21. Blending Cultures at a
Merged Service Desk
Amy Boucher, Emory University

22.  Reference librarians
off the desk
 Decreased/flat
numbers =
consolidation
 One stop shopping
 Budget savings
It’s a trend…..

23.  Services on different floors
◦ Reference on entrance floor, not visible from
entrance
◦ Circulation one floor up, off the beaten path
 Services flat/dropping
 Customer-driven and innovative culture
 Strong administrative support
…that we joined in on

24.  Circulation(3rd floor): checkouts, laptop
loans, reserves, book drops, learning
commons help, stacks assistance,
directional
 Reference(2nd): information, directional,
stacks assistance
 Learning commons (2nd): printer and
bizhub help, other public desktop support
The players

25. To the Merged Desk Moved to Other Areas
 Circulation  Laptop loans
◦ Moved to Music Media
 Reference  Reserves
◦ Moved to Music Media
Library
 Learning Commons
 Stacks Team
◦ Now separate from circ
team
Coming Together: Who was
involved…and who was not

26.  Timeline of less
than 1 year (Oct
2009 – Aug 2010)
 Focus on design &
becoming
operational, less on
team building
Full speed ahead…

30. How we got there

31.  Project team
 Info Forums
 Task forces
◦ Simulation planning
◦ Core competencies/training
◦ Workflow
 Desk simulations
Collaboration

32.  Services Division
•Access Services
•Library Service Desk
•Stacks
•ILL
•Branch Libraries & Reserves
•Collection Develop.
•Data and GIS Services
•Learning Commons
•Reference / Instruction
•Humanities
•Area Studies
•Sciences
•Social Sciences
A Wide Range of Teams

33. Circulation Reference
 Centralized  Community managed
management of schedule
schedule  Shared responsibility
 1/13 student staff  Very low turnover
ratio  Mentored training,
 High turnover minimal docs
 Documented,  Communication:
organized training email, blog
 Communication:
email, learnlink
A range of approaches

34. Integrated Separate
 Services  Admin
◦ Circulation – all staff ◦ Core staff on separate
trained in basics teams
◦ Scanner/printer help  Tasks
◦ Directional/stacks asst. ◦ Scheduling
 Tasks ◦ Supply ordering
◦ Handouts, signs  Services
◦ Advanced circulation
◦ Advanced learning
commons
◦ In-depth reference
The wait and see approach

35.  Focus on consistent, regular service through
transition
 Regular team meeting – members from Service Desk,
Reference/Instruction, Learning Commons Teams
 Work with Library HR on Team Building– Storming,
Norming, Performing
 Sharing visions, goals
 New team leader in Nov
Coming together

36.  Challenge of consistent communication
 One-way “cross-training” – leads to uneven
skills
 Focus on the desk – collective vs centralized
 Differing expectations for different staff
 Adjustment to new team, new space, new
manager, large desk community (40-50)
…and apart

37.  Possible integrations: scheduling, training
 Reference cross-training, new ILS training
 Patron intelligence/data (Desk Tracker,
comment cards)
 Staffing model – new model for new desk
–new position
◦ Existing staffing model: 1 reference, 1 circ
supervisor, 1-2 students
Next steps…

38.  Recognition that
this is an ongoing
process
 Working with Emory
Faculty/Staff
Assistance Program
 Off-campus retreat
 Lunch & a party!
Team building goes on

39. …Congratulations to us!
