摘要

电子资源的获取给德克萨斯理工大学图书馆的工作人员带来了许多新问题。收购部门和其他部门之间的传统沟通渠道不足以解决在收购大学社区日益需求的电子资源过程中提出的日益复杂的问题。虽然可以通过图书馆的部门结构来处理电子资源的决策,但由于缺乏速度和重点,这一过程受到了阻碍。为了解决这个问题,六名图书馆工作人员组成了一个电子资源小组。这个跨职能团队由来自四个不同部门的图书馆工作人员组成,他们每个人都有获取电子资源的不同方面的经验。成员继续在其部门内工作,并向其职能经理报告,但他们也向ERG项目经理报告,并有望为实现团队目标做出重大贡献。本文介绍了德克萨斯理工大学如何成功地使用跨职能团队的方法来管理电子格式材料的采购。

The Electronic Resources Group: using the cross-functional team approach to the challenge of acquiring electronic resources

The acquisition of electronic resources presented many new issues for staff at the Texas Tech University Library. Traditional communication pathways between acquisitions and other departments were inadequate to address the increasingly complex questions that were raised in the process of acquiring the electronic resources that were increasingly in demand by the university community. While it was possible to handle decision making for electronic resources through the library’s departmental structure, the process was hampered by a lack of speed and focus. To resolve this problem, six library staff members were brought together to form an electronic resources group (ERG). This cross-functional team is composed of library staff from four different departments, each of whom had experience with different aspects of acquiring electronic resources. Members continue to work within their departments and report to their functional managers, but they also report to the ERG project manager and are expected to contribute substantially to the accomplishment of group goals. This paper describes how Texas Tech has successfully used the cross-functional team approach for managing the acquisition of materials in electronic formats.
