Ending the Turf War: Circulation, Reference, and Instruction on One Team
Johnson, Ken; Jennings, Susan; Hisle, Sue
Journal of Access Services, v8 n3 p107-124 2011
In January 2008, the Belk Library & Information Commons at Appalachian State University combined the Access Services staff members of the Circulation and Lower Level Service Desks with the Reference and Instruction team as part of a library-wide reorganization effort. The new team balanced what had been a staff-dominated Access Services team with a library faculty-dominated Reference and Instruction team. This article describes Belk Library's efforts to end the turf war between circulation and reference service models and is based on a presentation given by Johnson and Jennings at the 2010 Access Services Conference in Atlanta, GA. (Contains 5 figures.)
