LMS – What Does It Stand For?

wise words from Jacquie Henry:

“All of us are proud (or should be) of those three letters. But in these days of budget cuts, many are experiencing the pain of losing our paraprofessionals, covering multiple libraries or both. As we cope with providing vital services to our students and faculty, we are in serious danger of falling prey to the Library Martyr Syndrome… If the library is open and accessible all the time, first and foremost we will drive ourselves into the ground ruining both our health and our spirits.  Additionally, if we provide the same service and the library is always open, many will not notice a difference and decide that making that cut was a good idea.  I would strongly urge everyone in this situation to NOT be a martyr. “
