When: ALA Annual Conference 2016
Where: Orlando, FL
First round of reviews: March 4, 2016
The demand by the local community for resources at the library continues to grow every year; however, the budget for technological resources may never grow to match. With changing demands, trying to satisfy the majority of users and staff becomes a difficult challenge. This panel will discuss technologies, best practices, and experiences with hardware budgeting, open source software, cloud services, developing partnerships, and other related topics that a manager can use to help maximize a budget.
