Miller, R. Bruce
Based on responses solicited from 26 Association of Research Library (ARL) members reflecting a variety of systems office configurations, this report describes the configurations at several ARL institutions and presents some major organizational patterns for systems offices and their relationship to the larger library organization. Original documents discuss the following topics: (1) Staff Position and Matrix Organization (Brown University, University of Houston, and Indiana University); (2) Line Organization (University of Cincinnati, Columbia University, Cornell University, University of Georgia, Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Michigan, New York University, Purdue University, Rutgers University, and Yale University); and (3) Multicampus University Support (University of California Division of Library Automation, University of California at Berkeley, University of California at Los Angeles, University of California at San Diego, Florida Center for Library Automation, University of Florida, and University of Missouri). A System and Procedures Exchange Center (SPEC) order form, note on the uses of SPEC Kits, evaluation form, and bibliography of related SPEC Kits and Office of Management Studies (OMS) publications are also provided.
