On Tuesday, October 25, 2022 at 5:30pm, some CARLI services experienced an unexpected service interruption for approximately 10 minutes. Services affected included the CARLI website, the ILDS website, the CARLI Selection System, CARLI’s Explore More Illinois authentication service, and CARLI’s ticket tracking system.
CARLI’s Technical Services Committee has identified a need to provide increased opportunities for cataloging training that meets different levels of staff and combines expert training with discussion. OCLC’s existing nine-module Connexion client training is a recognized source of quality training. The Committee will supplement these training modules with live discussion sessions in the Collection Client Training Q&A Series, giving those that view the training modules a venue to answer questions they may have about content covered in each module.
Please join us for the 2022 CARLI Annual Meeting to be held Friday, November 4 at the I Hotel and Conference Center in Champaign. We are excited about our keynote speaker, Victor Jones Jr.. Victor Jones Jr. (he/him/his) serves as the Director of DEIA for the University Library at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he provides leadership and advocacy within the Library to promote a workplace culture that supports all aspects of diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility. Prior to this role, Jones worked as a graduate recruiter for the iSchool at Illinois, where he built pipelines and created programming to diversify BIPOC student access to the information professions. The afternoon will feature table talks to gather input about the CARLI Strategic Plan. Staff at all CARLI member libraries are encouraged to attend. The agenda and registration are available from the event page.
