Title: Optimizing ‘Future-Ready’: Information, Curation, and Collaboration.
"The presentation explains how our small two-person library met the challenge of limited resources by embracing innovation to meet three of our key goals. We aligned ourselves with our institution's value of increasing employee knowledge of the agency's projects and programs as well as transportation overall. We embraced systematic digitization and new technologies to gather, surface, and celebrate myriad resources which are core to our mission. And we positioned ourselves to collaborate with our regional library, archives, and museum colleagues to elevate the importance of our shared historical and cultural assets. The focus on these goals in addition to core library services allowed us to seamlessly transition to work-from-home during the pandemic."
Speaker: Kenn Bicknell, Los Angeles Metro, Manager for Policy Research and Library Services

The TLR's purpose is to provide transportation librarians with opportunities to learn more about issues of mutual concern and interest and to have a new means of regular communication among members of that community.
