dc.descriptionThe session went well. There were 25 people in attendance. We had 3 discussion topics: Should MARC records from e-book vendors be modified and how, What is the role of Technical Services staff in the managing of electronic resources, and How do you motivate long term employees. Each table discussed each topic for about 30 minutes. All three topics were well received and there was good discussion about each topic. Some of the comments have been collected and will be shared on the wiki of the Canadian Library Association’s Technical Services Interest Group. Everyone liked the informal format that included the opportunity to have food and beverages while discussing topics of interest. It is hoped to repeat the session and format next year at the CLA conference in Montreal. I found the discussions interesting. There were a few suggestions relating to workflow and motivation that I will be using in the AU Library.en
