LOEX 2026

In July 2024, the University of New Mexico Libraries overhauled our instruction and liaison program in an employee-initiated and -led reorganization. We transitioned from a program comprised of solo liaisons plus a small instruction team to two population-oriented teams; one focused on undergraduates, and the other centered on graduate students and faculty. In this session, we explain our previous program's structure, why we changed, the reorganization steps, our current program's structure, and lessons learned.

Participants will:
1. Take away an example of an alternative instruction/outreach model to a traditional subject liaison model
2. Identify strategies for approaching collaborative reorganization design
