Support Services

  • Allow libraries to retain their fines to replace books
  • Establish fixed-free contracts with outside legal counsel and closely monitor costs
  • Improve the effectiveness of litigation support functions through automation
  • Contract out duplicating wherever possible if less costly
  • Do all printing in one color and double-sided only
  • Limit access to central supply and establish controls to stop theft
  • Increase charges for transcripts, with overnight delivery options
  • Evaluate cost-effectiveness of internal campus police
  • Renegotiate service contracts, shift work to in-house staff where cost-effective
  • Review consulting contracts for their necessity, reasonableness, and ability to recoup the costs

The surest way to be late is to have plenty of time.
