7. Origin & Purpose Tied to goals: Short term: create an active consultation and education program Long term: be the campus authority on scholarly communication and publishing To increase the Scholarly Communication Program's visibility To just be available to do presentations wasn't enough To have a way to track the presentations we were doing as a result of general outreach - tabling, programs, responding to OA Fund questions, and good old fashion liaison work To address the problem of low attendance at drop-in sessions and programs; if they won't come to us, we'll go to them

8. Implementation Outreach Department helped to develop branding and publicity - the flyer, the webform, website and easy to use URL; campus wide email announcement sent Be flexible! For example, when French & Italian dept. requested three presentations, but limited me to 30 minutes librarians can complete the request form for their departments longer presentations are available upon request Response & Feedback conducted 3 sessions between April and May (FRIT; Sociology; Office of Research) One librarian announced the program at a faculty meeting that she attended, and was pleased to be able to show and leave the flyer Fall outreach plans: info at Library Open House, Library newsletter article, emails from liaison librarians, Open Access Week programs and tabling, OA Policy implementation tie-in
