An important aspect of the new IGeLU organisation is the establishment of ‘Working Groups’. These will be based both around products (Aleph WG, SFX WG, MetaLib WG, etc.) and ‘Special Interest’ Working Groups.

The idea is that these can be formed by any members of IGeLU – so a very flexible arrangement – although they must inform the steering committee that they are forming.

I would think there will be special interest working groups for consortium or shared services, and probably public libraries – as these already existed in ICAU. It will be interesting to see what else comes up.
