Technical Services Round Table (TSRT)

OBJECTIVES

TSRT's general objective is to provide a framework for information sharing, continuing education, and moral support for library workers currently engaged in technical services activities. Specifically, the group has three aims:

• To provide for the exchange of ideas on technical services and automation processes, systems, and policies.
• To provide a medium for the exploration of new ideas and technologies.
• To foster cooperation among all Oregon libraries in the areas of technical services and automation and to increase an awareness in the library community of the roles of technical and automation services.

SCHOLARSHIP

TSRT offers a scholarship of up to $600 for current members towards the cost of attending the OLA annual conference. Funds may be used to help offset the cost of registration or other conference-related expenses.

You may qualify to apply if:

• you are a current member of OLA and the Oregon Library Association Technical Services Round Table (OLA TSRT)
• you are currently employed in a library position with technical services duties (such as acquisitions, collection development, processing, cataloging or systems)

The 2025 scholarship application period will be announced soon.
