Staff Development Committee
The Staff Development Committee is charged with developing and implementing annual staff development plans and activities for the Z. Smith Reynolds Library. Committee members representing the Library Teams solicit suggestions and requests for topics. Topics also come from workshop evaluations and the library administration. The staffs of the Professional Center Library and the Coy C. Carpenter Medical School Library are invited to participate in many of the staff development activities.
The Staff Development Committee focuses on providing workshops and training opportunities that can take place in the Library. Other development activities, such as travel to professional conferences and off-site workshops, are available to all staff through the Library's staff development funds request process. Occasionally individual departments organize special informational events that constitute staff development opportunities.
