A method for automated, high throughput cellular library generation is disclosed. The method includes providing a suspension including transformed cells and plating the transformed cells onto solid surfaces of each of at least one reservoir of a reservoir plate. The solid surfaces can include a liquid growth medium. The reservoir plate is incubated, and after cellular growth has occurred on at least one plated surface of the reservoir plate, a series of automatic steps are performed. The automatically-performed steps include adding disaggregation solution to the reservoir plate, applying a mechanical force, such as a rotational force, to the reservoir plate to produce resuspended cells, and/or collecting the resuspended cells.
