Libraries Australia State User Groups are held at regular intervals around the country and are attended by users of Libraries Australia services. These meetings provide a forum to discuss workflows and issues, including those which relate to Libraries Australia services and other issues which impact the library community. These groups are attended by a Libraries Australia representative at least once a year. Minutes from these meetings can be found on the Libraries Australia mailing lists.
Libraries Australia User Groups are active in all states and territories. Some states have specialist interlibrary loans and cataloguing groups as well. The user groups make a valuable contribution by offering feedback on current services, providing advice for future directions, as well as considering local issues.
The following presentation was the basis of presentations given by Libraries Australia Staff attending the State User Group meetings in the first half of 2008. Presentation
