HCL Administrative Services
HCL administrative services, which serve all units of the College Library, are also housed in the Widener building and include Communications, Financial Services, Human Resource Services, Information Technology Services, and Operations.
Communications manages all internal and external communications efforts of Harvard College Library in a fashion that consistently reflects the identity of the Library and supports its mission.
External communications efforts target constituencies outside HCL with the goal of raising awareness of library services, programs, achievements, needs, and staff. Work includes production and management of web sites, editorial oversight of printed collateral (brochures, invitations, fliers, logo items, etc.), building signage, renovation/construction communication, photography, media relations, directories, and special presentations and projects that reflect the "public face" of HCL.
Internal communications efforts target HCL staff with the goal of keeping all employees well-informed about the business of the Library, the individual units, and fellow staff members; and of facilitating the exchange of information among all units and the HCL Administration. Work includes support of HCL Administration initiatives, production and management of the library Intranet, administration of listservs and HCL News Boards, renovation/construction communications, printing/stationery projects, photography, and a variety of miscellaneous projects.
