Hello everyone, I am throwing out this question out there to see what comes back. We recently hired our own IT person for the library, only. We are a part of a healthcare system with a small academic college. Anything relating to the library was delegated not just to the back burner but rather the storage shed where the only key to it is in the hands of the janitor that retired 9 years ago. Now we have an IT guy that is quickly being indoctrinated into the finer aspects of electronic resources, authentication (Open Athens), Discovery Services, link resolvers, Excel, Powershell, VBA, Python etc.
He was asked to obtain certifications to help meet requirements for his position/title and for academic accreditation needs. What certification(s), if any, do you require of your IT workers? Since this is a new position, we did not require any certs to qualify for the job. Any insight would be appreciated.
