Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a crucial book on the neglected issue of continuing education of reference librarians. For librarians seeking to enhance and maintain a high level of quality reference work and for managers who must assure that their staffs receive the basics in continuing education, this is essential reading. Continuing Education of Reference Librarians addresses the concerns of all librarians that they must be informed and educated in order to excel in their work. In the first several chapters of this comprehensive volume, on-the-job librarians focus on the increased need for nontraditional approaches to continuing education and training of reference staff. They offer practical ways of making additional training both useful and relatively easy to carry out within the library setting. Teachers of reference offer suggestions for contending with current formal courses, and they also examine the responsibilities of not only the reference librarian but also the bibliographer and faculty member in staying abreast of current trends. Also in this broad-based look at continuing education is a list of critical skills most librarians expect of their reference people, including reference interview techniques, mastery of basic reference sources, and an understanding of new technologies; a review of the most revolutionary change in teaching reference librarianship in the last 100 years--the online search; and a discussion on ethics, including the need for librarians to be aware of the basic documents of the American Library Association, and more importantly, the need to treat all library users equally, in terms of access and service, regardless of status and personal prejudice. Continuing Education of Reference Librarians focuses on specific types of training for librarians. Authorities explain pioneering programs in California and Maryland which deal with teaching basic reference tools to beginning librarians and paraprofessionals. They also discuss the role of multitype networks in continuing education as the most cost and time efficient means available today, and the use of self-directed contract learning as a method that requires long-term planning and rewards in contrast to the immediate results of a short-term plan of education. The management perspective of continuing education is also included. Working library directors offer their observations on sound, inspirational approaches to continuing education. They also examine the critical role department heads play as mentor to beginning reference librarians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gain valuable insights into the smaller but more personalized work of liberal arts college science librarianship with these interesting and instructive stories. A striking number of outstanding scientists got their initial encouragement at small liberal arts colleges. Their success is due to both the efforts of their professors and the work of the liberal arts college science librarians who served them assiduously. In Science Librarianship at America's Liberal Arts Colleges, science librarians vividly describe the life and times of small liberal arts college science libraries and the workday life of librarians serving scientists from a main campus library. They describe their efforts to defend expensive science collections in the face of tight budgets, to singlehandedly monitor and select literature in all areas from astronomy through zoology, and to compete with the humanities and social studies for library shelf space. This unique volume is the first to publish prose studies of actual libraries and librarians and provide an intensely personal look at science librarianship at these institutions. The contributing librarians present a range of views on subjects including the historical motivation for their science libraries, physical descriptions of library layouts, statistics on holdings and purchasing trends for science materials, daily tasks and sense of mission concerning library patrons, use of new technology, and future directions for science libraries at small liberal arts colleges. Science Librarianship at America's Liberal Arts Colleges covers a variety of subjects of interest to science librarians at liberal arts colleges, directors of liberal arts college libraries, and library school graduate students. Some of the major topics discussed include: what working liberal arts college science librarians actually do each day how they sustain the enthusiasm of America's few science majors how they satisfy the library collections and services demands of faculty accustomed to and recruited from the large library facilities of such universities as Harvard or Stanford how they use their smaller collections to prepare students for the riches of a Johns Hopkins or Duke when students go on to medical school or graduate school why they choose the tensions and challenges of small liberal arts colleges over the better pay and recognition of larger universities and corporations how campus finances, politics, traditions, and geography play a role in establishing a separate science library how to weed, store, and move voluminous science collections how elite, small liberal arts schools are prioritizing budgets in an age of conversion from print sources to electronic access
