Academic Librarians in Public Service (ALPS) December Meeting 2012

The annual BCLA ALPS December Meeting took place at Langara College on December 14, 2012. This year’s theme touched on two of the hottest topics in academic librarianship: service reviews and assessment. The morning session began with a panel discussion on library service reviews and their impact. Featured panelists included: library managers, librarians and support staff from three academic institutions: SFU, UBC-O and UBC-V. Speakers for the early morning session were Janis McKenzie (SFU), Scott Mackenzie (SFU), Sarah Stang (UBC-O), Sierra Stephens (UBC-O), Gordon Yusko (UBC-V) and Julie Mitchell (UBC-V).
