(Posted on behalf of Ryan Brubacher. Please contact her directly at [log in to unmask] if you are interested in participating on the panel.) Greetings. I am looking to fill out a panel on collaborative projects at GLAMs with presenters from a variety of positions, roles and institutions. Case studies that cover anything from how you find partners for projects, how you fund collaborative efforts, to how you distribute work and how you document the projects for archives or as reference for future projects, would enhance the current set of speakers. Please contact me if you or someone at your institution might be interested in presenting about a large collaborative project. The details for the conference and session abstract are below. Please respond off list. Thanks, Ryan Brubacher ------------------------ VRA Annual Conference (conference theme "Unbridled Opportunties") March 28-April 1st, 2016 - Louisville, KY Panel Session: Cross-Campus Collaboration Case Studies Abstract: We all collaborate in various small ways in our day to day work, but large scale collaborations across campus are a different story. Finding opportunities for collaboration, learning about collaborative efforts where our expertise would be helpful, facilitating conversations across different departments, funding large projects, working with a variety of personalities, assessing and learning from collaborative projects and communicating the results of collaborations all can get difficult and time consuming. The case-studies in this session will highlight different types of collaborative projects and illustrate problems, solutions, techniques, results, and rewards of taking on cross-campus collaborative projects, with the aim of inspiring us all to take the time and effort to tap into unbridled opportunities. ---------- Ryan Brubacher Senior Instruction+Research Support Specialist, Arts & Humanities Occidental College, Los Angeles 323.259.2714 [log in to unmask] -- Meghan Musolff Program Manager for Library IT Services, Training, & Assessment Online Exhibits/Omeka Coordinator University of Michigan Library 734-647-5978 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the DLF-ANNOUNCE list, click the following link: http://lists.clir.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=DLF-ANNOUNCE&A=1
