Change Management for Library Technologists

Technology has transformed how libraries, archives, and museums store and display their collections, engage with their users, and serve their communities.

The pressure to implement new technologies is constant, but technology that isn’t truly useful to users, staff, and stakeholders can represent a huge investment of time and money that yields little reward.

In order to make meaningful technology changes in our libraries, archives, and museums, we need a flexible toolkit that will help information professionals become change leaders, navigating the equally complex variables associated with system specs and human experience or perception.

Change management incorporates these concerns into a comprehensive framework.
