For starters, there are the numerous job classifications: staff or professional employment, full faculty status, various forms of tenure, continuing contract, and/or promotion through academic ranks. While every academic librarian works to meet the research needs of an institution's faculty and students, many are expected to assume other obligations as part of a faculty or tenure system-including publication, research, service, and professional activities. If this were not enough to test a librarian's mettle, the widely varying academic focuses and cultures of college and university libraries almost certainly will. The Successful Academic Librarian, expertly edited by academic librarian, writer, and speaker Gwen Meyer Gregory, is an antidote to the stress and burnout that almost every academic librarian experiences at one time or another. In this helpful book, Gregory and nearly 20 of her peers and mentors take a practical approach to a full range of critical topics facing the profession. Their advice, war stories, tips, techniques, and inspiration will help you thrive in your academic library career. 606 $aAcademic librarians$xEmployment$zUnited States 606 $aAcademic librarians$xVocational guidance 606 $aLibrary science 606 $aSocial Sciences$2HILCC 606 $aLibrary & Information Science$2HILCC 615 0$aAcademic librarians$xEmployment 615 0$aAcademic librarians$xVocational guidance. 615 0$aLibrary science. 615 7$aSocial Sciences 615 7$aLibrary & Information Science 676 $a027.7/092 700 $aMcDermott$b Irene E$01854433 702 $aGregory$b Gwen Meyer 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961350703321 996 $aThe successful academic librarian : winning strategies from library leaders$94451687 997 $aUNINA
