Resource Sharing & Fulfillment (RSF) Community Calls

Community Calls (previously Open Calls)

Community Calls for 2023/2024 will be held on the Second Thursday of each month from 11 am-noon. Log-in information will be added to the agenda on the week of the call. Contact Lori Hilterbrand if you have missed the log-in info, or contact Elizabeth Duell if you would like to be added to the RSF Discussion List to receive the agendas and other program information.

Below you will find agendas and recordings for past RSF Community Calls. The RSF Community Engagement Group would like to invite you to attend our monthly calls if you work in resource sharing, access services, circulation, or any other services that fulfill loans, holds, bookings and requests.

Don’t be shy, but if you are….

We realize that bringing your question up in a community call can be a little intimidating (although we’re all very friendly and eager to interact). If you have a question or issue you’d like some help with but are not yet fully comfortable speaking in front of the group, use this Anonymous Ask form! Please don’t expect individual replies as the form is completely anonymous, but , if the question or idea is intriguing, helpful or otherwise endearing, we’ll add it to our call agenda and give it some discussion, or email about it on the RSF Discussion list. Tune in for answers and *don’t be shy!*
