Negotation Skills for Librarians

My colleague Yasmin was asking if I knew of any materials on negotiation skills. Here are a few things I came up with:

We covered it at NE2007 -- the audio is on this page-- http://www.law-lib.utoronto.ca/NE2007/Proceedings.html it is program F1 "Negotiating Contracts: Tips, Tricks and Tools". I haven't listened to it (yet!), but I heard it was good.

AALL had a program in 2008 "Practical Negotiation for Law Librarians"
http://www.aallnet.org/chapter/llops/committees/profdev/welton.ppt (PowerPoint)

AALL's CRIV (their equivalent to CALL's VLC) has a webpage "Checklist for the Negotiation of Internet Subscriptions"
http://www.aallnet.org/committee/criv/resources/tools/negotiate.htm

If you know of any others, please share!

Cheers,
Connie

Connie, if librarians are looking for negotiating material specifically in relation to negotiating license agreements, there is an entire chapter on this topic in the new edition of my book, Licensing Digital Content: A Practical Guide for Librarians. See the book blog at www.licensingdigitalcontent.blogspot.com.

Great blog Connie!
