A Modern Information Services Organization – What we need to do differently to meet today’s challenges

Wednesday, October 31, 2012, 10am
Ramada Plaza / Manoir du Casino Hotel, 75 rue d’Edmonton

The federal government information environment is shifting due to a number of pressures such as resource reductions, advances in technology and a greater emphasis on centralized application and service delivery.  At the same time, knowledge workers are demanding information from an increasing variety of published, corporate, social and media sources, regardless of format.   How can we break down silos and offer more holistic information and knowledge resource provision from a single point of access?    How can we transform the information services organizational model to streamline the provision of a wealth of expertise and carry out efficient information resources management?

Phil Culhane from CT Labs has worked with a number of government library, records, IM and KM organizations.  From his many projects, he has extracted an Information Services Delivery Model that bears scrutiny.  The model is still very much a working draft, and he will be presenting it to us as a part of a larger conversation:

What do we need to do differently to deliver effective information services in this time of change?
