News You Can Use—OCLC Research Update: Partner with Purpose for Greater Impact

Collaboration and partnerships are used frequently by library staff from all library types when trying to extend resources to respond to community needs. Whether your community includes a campus, municipality, library network, or other connected stakeholders, successful partnerships require investment of resources and careful planning and maintenance to reach their full potential.

Topics covered will include digital collections stewardship training, strategic collaboration planning models, reimagining descriptive workflows, prospective research and learning opportunities addressing public library initiatives, areas of concern, and more.
