Ms Margaret Jones Director Library Services, Murdoch
University, Australia
Margaret Jones is currently
Director of Library Services at Murdoch University, and has worked at Murdoch
since 1994, initially as Information Services Librarian. Prior to her
appointment at Murdoch she worked at the University of Western Australia
Library in a number of areas, including acquisitions and collection
development, reference services and interlibrary lending.
Murdoch University Library is
actively involved in a range of collaborative activities at both a local and
national level. The Western Australian Group of University Librarians (WAGUL)
provides a framework for local collaboration with respect to lending,
interlibrary lending, and joint purchasing, as well as engaging in specific
projects. Recently these have included the joint purchase and implementation of
FDI's VDX software for interlibrary lending, and the joint selection and
acquisition of an authentication system for use across the five Western
Australian universities. Murdoch University also manages a joint library
service at its Rockingham Regional Campus with its partners the City of
Rockingham and Challenger TAFE. A further joint library service on the Peel
Education and Training Campus is currently under investigation.
