Hi Rhiannon
Until very recently, all of our web people were in a single team -
Digital Library Services (who sit within the Marketing & Communications
department). However, we are beginning a process of "digital
re-balancing" at the National Library of Scotland, with a view to
increasing capacity to deliver digital services and spread the
organisational responsibility for this throughout the organisation. As a
step towards this we are welcoming our first Web Learning officer in the
Education and Interpretative Services team on Tuesday - the first person
with a 100% web remit to be placed in a service division outwith the
Digital Library team. Hopefully, this will be a first step towards
"web-people" being distributed throughout the Library and a cleaner
integration of web-based and on-site services.
We'll see what happens

Subject: Position of web people within an organisation
Dear all,
I know this has been a topic of conversation in the industry before but
I'm interested to find out where 'web people' sit within your
organisational structures. Are they part of marketing, an independent
department, part of IT, part of learning, exhibitions etc etc? I
suppose feeding in to this, it would be interesting to know which
places, other than the 'big guns' even have their own dedicated web
people.
Feel free to reply off list if you think it's more appropriate.
Thanks a lot
Rhiannon Looseley
