Call for Applicants: BadgerLink Advisory Group

Group Mission

The BadgerLink Advisory Group seeks to improve the ability of all Wisconsin residents to access and effectively use the high-quality, licensed resources, expand service visibility to existing as well as new and diverse audiences, and build stronger relationships between members and their libraries and community organizations. 

Topics include: 

• Resource and content needs
• User experience on BadgerLink website and library platforms
• Training materials
• Outreach strategies and marketing materials

Interested? 

We are seeking 10 new members from all types of Wisconsin libraries and community organizations.

The group will meet virtually two times per year. The meetings will follow a flipped-classroom model to encourage and allow for discussion during the meetings. Members will receive learning materials prior to each meeting on one of the four general topical areas: resources/content, user experience, training, and outreach. The anticipated time commitment to review the materials and generate notes for discussion is roughly 1.5 hours. During the meetings, members will assist with developing and prioritizing activities based on the topic, and reviewing prior work. Time outside of meetings may be needed to complete or review certain activities.

Members serve two-year terms, with all members beginning at the spring meeting of the first year. Group members should have:

• Expertise necessary to accomplish the group’s objectives
• Interest or experience in electronic resources
• Sufficient time available to prepare for and attend meetings
• Willingness to listen to diverse perspectives
