ALCTS webinar: Using MOUs to Build Partnerships without Pressure

Date: Wednesday, February 10, 2016

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1pm Central, and 2pm Eastern time.

Description: This webinar will introduce an increasingly common method for
negotiating library materials and services: the memorandum of
understanding. It will present the MoU as a tool for lower-stakes
arrangements that still require formal documentation and describe how MoUs
are different from a standard contract under the law and in institutional
practice. Finally, it will offer tips and resources to help librarians work
with MoUs in their day to day practice.

Learning outcomes:

* Introduction to MoUs as a concept and an institutional tool

* Librarian preparation to contribute to and interpret MoUs

* Resources for developing MoUs and best practices for using them

Who should attend? Librarians, especially collection managers and
administrators who negotiate partnerships and business agreements

Presenter: William Cross is the Director of the Copyright and Digital
Scholarship Center at North Carolina State University where he provides
information on copyright, licensing, open scholarship and education, and
related topics. He has an M.A. in Technology & Communication, a J.D. in
Law, and an M.S.L.S. in Library Science. Will worked in academic and law
libraries, in constitutional litigation, and at the North Carolina Court of
Appeals. He is an adjunct instructor in the UNC School of Information &
Library Science.
