  <title><![CDATA[Library launches expert team model]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>In an effort to improve service across the Institute, the Georgia Tech Library recently announced a shift in how Librarians interact with students, faculty and staff: a team model for subject matter experts.&nbsp;</p><p>To find your librarian team, visit our <a href="https://library.gatech.edu/research-help-support/experts">experts page</a> or e-mail us at&nbsp;<a href="mailto:academicengagement@library.gatech.edu" target="_blank">academicengagement@library.gatech.edu</a>.</p><p>“We’re proud to roll out this new model to campus,” said Liz Holdsworth, Head of Academic Engagement at the Georgia Tech Library. “In this past, individual librarians served as liaisons for each of the Institute’s schools. Tech’s recent growth requires a new, more strategic model ensuring researchers find the best resources for their work.”&nbsp;</p><p>Each Georgia Tech college now has in place a team of librarians ready to help with everything from finding an article to navigating open access publishing. This new team model for research assistance makes it easier to connect, get research help, and utilize Library resources.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>Going forward, seven teams of Library experts will serve Georgia Tech colleges:&nbsp;</p><ul><li>College of Computing</li><li>College of Design</li><li>College of Engineering</li><li>College of Lifetime Learning</li><li>College of Sciences</li><li>Ivan Allen College of the Liberal Arts</li><li>Scheller College of Business</li></ul><p>The librarians, archivists, and public associates on those teams have a wide range of knowledge and skills.&nbsp;</p><p>Our teams will answer research questions and instruction and consultation requests related to the disciplines in their college, along with questions about library services or potential collaborations from faculty, staff, and students,” said Holdsworth.&nbsp;</p>]]></body>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
