Abstract

In library literature, one can often encounter examples of collaborations, particularly with partners outside of the library. Collaboration is a common element of organizational life and can prove to be useful as new services evolve or there is a desire to promote existing resources or services. Groups of library colleagues can come together in various ways on short term projects with results that can include articles and postings in various institutional news formats and websites, physical displays, presentations, and events. This poster illustrates some examples of projects that brought together librarians from different library departments, service cores, and working groups, providing them with opportunities to collaborate, utilizing their interests, skills, and expertise. It will highlight some of the target areas they chose to address, and the elements that helped move the projects along. The resulting projects accomplished through such collaborations involved various visualizations, displays, and presentations highlighting the impact of publications and library services over time.
