Description
- Melissa Brooks, Coordinator, Metadata Services, West Virginia University Libraries
- Angie Maranville, Assistant Director, Knowledge Access and Resource Management, West Virginia University Libraries
2015-2016 was an exciting time of great change for the Knowledge Access & Resource Management Unit (KARM) at the West Virginia University Libraries. The newly minted unit was formed by integrating staff from various disparate units, who immediately participated in an Integrated Library Systems migration, and in doing so were required to adopt new workflows within the nascent unit. The management of these new workflows required a paradigm shift as several units moved to a project-based workflow.
This presentation focuses on the altered workflows of the KARM Projects and Metadata Services Units of KARM as their work shifted from a consistent, day-to-day process to one almost wholly project based. Topics of discussion include but are not limited to Prioritization of Projects, Identifying Stakeholders, How to Initiate a Project, and Success Stories: How Project Management has Streamlined Processes and Personnel Responsibilities.
