With the merger of Collection Management and portions of Academic Consulting Services, it became clear that the area needed a new name to reflect its expanded scope.
I’m therefore pleased to announce that the name for this area is now Research and Collection Services (RCS). While many portions of the website still reflect the old names — and it will take a while before we’ve eradicated all remnants of Collection Management/Academic Consulting Services from the website, email distribution lists, HR/Banner information, etc. — please consider the name to be effective immediately. We’ll try to get the changes made expeditiously.
As a reminder, RCS includes:
- Reference and Instruction Librarians
- Special Collections
- Vt. Collection
- Government Documents
- Inter-library Loan
- Cataloging/Acquisitions/Serials
- Preservation & Processing
- Collection Development
