2CUL Phase 2
Overview: To move from the exploratory to the implementation stage of 2CUL, it will be necessary to unify Columbia and Cornell technical services as much as possible, while retaining those local practices and workflows that must remain institution-specific.  Crucial to this operation integration will be:

  1. A thorough and systematic review of all existing technical services policies, practices, and workflows at each institution, with a view towards reconciling them as much as possible; and
  2. The creation of a formal 2CUL framework through which to exercise joint bargaining power in negotiating with vendors and other third parties for services and content; and
  3. A re-definition of job responsibilities reflecting cross-institutional organizational structures through which unnecessary redundancy can be elimintad and harmonized workflows can be implemented to serve Cornell and Columbia jointly; and
  4. The selection, purchase, and implementation of a joint library management system (LMS) in parallel and coordinated with this operational integration.
