    ALCTS Technical Services Directors of Large Research Libraries Harvard Library ALA Annual / June 2017

    ALCTS Technical Services Directors of Large Research Libraries Harvard Library ALA Annual / June 2017 The following report includes contributions from Michelle Durocher, Steven Folsom, Jaime McAllister- Grande, Chew Chiat Naun, Isabel Quintana, Susan Radovsky, Lauren Syer, and Scott Wicks Organizational changes: In September of 2016, the Harvard Library brought Information and Technical Services (ITS), Scholarly Communications, and Harvard College collection development together under the leadership of Elizabeth (Eliz) Kirk, Associate University Librarian for Scholarly Resources. This new role aligns the three component and interdependent functions. Staffing changes: Chew Chiat Naun has joined the Harvard team as Head of Metadata Creation, the group whose main responsibility is to provide intellectual access to the general collections acquired for Harvard libraries in the form of original cataloging and metadata problem solving at the title level. Naun comes to us from Cornell University Library, a close Harvard partner both in terms of collection sharing and metadata standards and tools development. Recruitment: Harvard Library is recruiting for its Head of Electronic Resources position. In addition to leading a seasoned team already managing e-resource operations, this person has a strong focus external to the department. S/he will take a key role engaging with the Library community to formulate and implement policy among the twelve schools that together make up One Harvard Library. S/he will consider how collaborative collection development can enhance the current e- resource offerings (within Harvard, within ReCAP, within the Ivy Plus libraries, or other multi- institutional arrangements such as NERL). S/he also will consider how best to leverage open access opportunities as part of a holistic approach to providing Harvard’s user communities with unimpeded access to content.

Harvard owes its very name to the library that was left in 1638 by John Harvard to the newly created College. For 370 years, the College and the University that grew around it have had libraries at their heart. While the University sprouted new buildings, departments, and schools, the library grew into a collection of collections, adding new services and locations until its tendrils stretched as far from Cambridge as Washington, DC and Florence, Italy.
