Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Purpose The paper seeks to document the process and strategies used to create transformational change at the operational, organizational and cultural level. Design/methodology/approach The vision of transformational change was guided by three principles: building it today, adding value, and aligning with the university's strategic plan. Findings During a 2008‐2009 internal review it became clear that current services and systems were inhibiting the ability to move forward. To overcome this inertia, eight strategies were developed to lay the foundation for transformational change. These included: creating a framework for change, leveraging outside expertise, building a leadership team, designing a new organizational structure, influencing organizational culture, managing transition, forming operational teams and workgroups, and reflections. The greatest challenge has been to manage library staff fears and expectations. Dealing with both passive and active resistance has required flexibility and a commitment on the part of library administration to engage staff in an ongoing dialogue to clarify the vision and to encourage staff to see change as serving both the library's interests and their own self‐interest. Originality/value The value of this paper is in showcasing tools and strategies for transforming an academic library's organizational culture and structure.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
