Abstract: The team structure was implemented in the Acquisitions Services Department at the
Pennsylvania State University Libraries in July 1994. This was shortly after the adoption of
the Continuous Quality Improvement (a version of Total Quality Management) initiative at
Pennsylvania State University. For the library, it was in response to reorganization discussions
that occurred as a result of frustration and lack of communication due to the hierarchical
structure that was in place. Financial implications were also considered, as we hoped
that the team structure would improve efficiency while reducing the number of staff members
in Technical Services.
