The Georgia Tech Library and Information Center began a robust agenda in 2001 to establish collaborative campus services to enhance the contemporary student learning experience. Other collaborations underway help to shape the campus infrastructure and policy to meet learning and research needs in the digital environment. The GT Library’s heralded collaboration with the GT Office of Information Technology (OIT) resulted in the Library West Commons in 2002. This spawned other Library – OIT partnerships such as the brand new student collaborative learning space called the Library East Commons (opened September 2006) and the OIT/Library Resource Center (opened April 2006). The Resource Center includes hosted services from Undergraduate Academic Advising, Graduate Fellowship and Scholarship Office, Counseling Center, and OIT Customer Services. Ongoing collaborative policy and technology infrastructure initiatives addressing virtual learning needs range from courseware and eLearning tools selection to strategic planning and intellectual property management. The virtual learning collaborators include the Library, OIT, the Center for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning (CETL), and Distance Learning and Professional Education (DLPE). This session will give an overview of some of Georgia Tech’s major Library – OIT collaborations and the philosophies underlying this fertile environment for transforming information and learning services. A discussion with attendees will focus on gaining feedback on the work presented and sharing the attendees’ experiences with Library – IT collaborations.
