Abstract
What happens when an access services department has to run an information commons? This presentation will describe the transformation of the Georgia Tech Library's Circulation department when they became the service desk for the Library East Commons, including: how the staff adapted to new job requirements; how the department philosophy influenced the daily activities in the commons; and how the commons created partnerships with other library and academic departments.
