“Re-envisioning ‘Technical Services’ to Transform Libraries: Identifying Leadership and Talent Management Practices” will explore how libraries can recruit and cultivate staff who can serve
as both leaders and contributors and provide insight into talent management, including identifying and nurturing leaders; succession planning; promoting diversity; and connecting staff with the best training options throughout their careers. Keynote speakers

State University of New York at Potsdam.
Other featured speakers are Meredith A. Taylor, Provost’s Office, UT Austin and co-author of the ARL Spec Kit on Talent Management, who will also lead breakout sessions, and Sylvia Hall-Ellis, adjunct professor at San
Jose State University. A trio of case studies to support early, middle and advanced career stages will be offered by Jacob Nadal, ReCAP; Elyssa M. Gould, University of Michigan Law Library; and Angela Kinney, Library of Congress. The Program
