Abstract

This column begins with an overview of an Alma ebook management project from the Electronic Resources Minnesota conference in 2019. Then, conference presenters discuss organizational restructuring from their presentation at the Charleston Conference 2019, which is followed by two more reports from Charleston 2020 conference sessions highlighting an affordable course materials initiative and how to balance user preferences and convenience with protecting a user’s private information. Finally, a report from the first Core Conference discusses the new Unsub tool and how two libraries incorporated it.
