The Libraries is actively changing the face of its staff with recruitment efforts underway for ten positions over the past month. No new positions have been added to the staff. Instead these positions are carefully redefined jobs to address vacancies and meet numerous factors of change. As we report each month, change is a constant at the Libraries and a relatively small cohort of 64 dedicated professionals, assistants and student employees work collaboratively to shape the direction of this change.

Professionals, equipped to adapt to changes in scholarly communications, pedagogy, technologies, and the diverse cultures of Drexel learners are also critical to lead initiatives framed by the Libraries strategic plans. The library liaison role is evolving at Drexel to strengthen partnerships and communications with all schools and colleges-we are introducing a focused emphasis to sharpen these connections of library specialists to campus research and specifically with the health sciences domains where so much of Drexel's research output originates.
