For more than 60 years, the Association of Southeastern Research Libraries has brought together leaders from research, federal, and state libraries in the region to foster a high standard of library excellence through inter-institutional resource sharing and other collaborative efforts. Today, ASERL is one of the largest regional research library consortia in the United States. By working together, ASERL members continue to provide and maintain top quality resources and services for the students, faculty, and citizens of their respective communities.
WEATHER WATCH: As communities impacted by Hurricane Florence recover, a reminder that ASERL’s Principles of Mutual Aid are now in place (see https://bit.ly/2LMYk9h). If needed, ASERL members will endeavor to assist each other in ensuring continuity of library services for affected students, faculty, and staff, helping with recovery or replacement of resources, sharing expertise, and providing non-material support in whatever ways may be feasible. Additional disaster prep and recovery resources can be found at the Heritage Emergency Response Alliance website (https://heraatlanta.wordpress.com/resources/) and American Institute for Conservation website: (http://www.conservation-us.org/emergencies#.W5ZlauhJGUk). LYRASIS also offers classes and services in this arena: https://www.lyrasis.org/services/Pages/Digital-and-Preservation-Services.aspx
NEWS! ASERL members have approved a new Diversity & Inclusion Values Statement and a new Mutual Aid Agreement.
