Temporary Staffing for an Academic Library

Our Client, a 4-year college, engaged Library Associates Companies for a special, short-term project to correct some problems with their Integrated Library System (ILS). LAC provided a team of 3 staff members – 1 Project Manager, 1 library technician, and 1 library clerk – that we recruited locally for the project. The Project Manager was a librarian with a MLS, and the technician and clerk had academic and special library experience. The specific scope of the project was to inventory, create, update, and upgrade MARC serial holding records as necessary in the Client’s ILS. The Project Manager reported to the Client contact as well as a senior LAC project manager on a weekly basis with progress reports. This year-long contract was completed on schedule and under budget.
