Item More Than Just Boxes and Lines on a Page: Stories from a Special Collections Department Reorganization(Library Leadership and Management, 2024-04-15) Birrell, LoriInterested in leveraging a reorganization to bring about sustained and meaningful organizational and cultural change, the author developed a multi-step process anchored by three decision-making drivers that guided the work. These drivers helped the author articulate to herself and the department the “why” behind the reorganization and to keep focused on those drivers during even the messiest parts of the process. The case study presented here describes the author’s process and lessons learned.Item Show Me the Money!?? Applying an Equity Lens to the Budget Process(2023-06-07) Birrell, LoriIn this participatory session, attendees will learn the key components of and how to implement that toolkit within their organizational context. The four components include 1) Knowing where your money is and what it can be spent on; 2) Developing a budget strategy to support your program and key objectives; 3) Communicating both internally within your unit and externally to key stakeholders how you’ve spent your funds; 4) Writing a funding proposal to gain additional support from library administration or outside funders. Using a series of guiding questions made available through discussion boards, participants will begin to apply the components of the toolkit to their own practice.
