2022 NCTPG 84th Annual Membership Meeting and Program

100 Larkin Street,San Francisco CA 94102

18 May, 2022

Description

NCTPG's annual membership meeting and program showcase research and practice in the area of library technical processes. Join us for the membership meeting and the annual program! NCTPG is pleased to present two featured presentations -- Shellie Cocking, Chief of Collection and Technical Services, and Randle McClure, Chief Analytics Officer, both of the San Francisco Public Library on how data analytics is utilized to reposition and forecast library collections, services, and programs. Nancy Lorimer, Associate Director of Metadata Services at Stanford University, will update the progress of the Stanford's Linked Data for Production (LD4P) Project and Sinopia, a linked data editor developed at Stanford, where Nancy is the primary stakeholder and lead. In addition to the two featured presentations, NCTPG is continuing the tradition to provide a venue for members to exchange ideas and experience of the most recent projects undertaken at different institutions. Justine Withers and Anders Lyon, both of the University of San Francisco, will do lightning talks of their current endeavors on faculty ebook user study, Reparative and Inclusion Description working group update, and USF's CMS move to LibGuides. At this event, we expect to have a broad representation of all types of libraries (academic, public, special) and a diverse representation of roles within and around technical services. Attendees are encouraged to participate in the informal discussion groups after the annual program ends for networking activity to checking in with our colleagues and peers. This year one of the possible topics is the ILS migration as many institutions are embarking on the journey. Everyone is welcome to contribute!
