Download or read book The Solo Librarian written by Lucy Roper and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-06-18 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming a solo librarian may be a daunting prospect. From collections to cataloguing, classifying to copyright, whether the individual is a solo librarian, within a small team with limited help, or working in a larger library or information hub, the range of tasks involved will remain the same. Whilst being a solo librarian does have its fair share of challenges that can include juggling multiple tasks and time management, marketing and embracing the ever-changing technologies and upcoming social media channels, and effectively managing the feeling of being isolated, there are also many advantages. With the author having been through the education process and gained work experience, information professionals will have already picked up many transferrable skills and identified some key aspects when it comes to accessing, using, and running a library. By being intellectually curious, embracing ever-changing technologies, enjoying learning and knowledge creation, and working alongside non-library colleagues, it is likely that information professionals are organised, can manage their time effectively, enjoy helping others by sharing and promoting library and information services, and will stay engaged as a team of one. As a solo librarian herself and a book not being available on the topic, she has decided to write one – which covers the lessons learnt, and templates created in order to assist others) that find themselves in a similar role &/or a small team with limited help. This Internationally applicable and practical handbook will follow a yearly planner and shows a timeline of key activities that happen throughout, in this instance, an academic year and include the following examples: Acquisitions, cataloguing, updating library guidance (before academic year start - September) Student and Staff Inductions (September/October) Quarterly Business Review to review updates and library usage (Oct – Dec) Library cover over student/staff holiday period (Dec) Quarterly Business Review (Jan – Mar) Quality standard(s) re-accreditation (April) Research methods/study skills webinars (April) Library cover over student holiday period (April) Quarterly Business Review (April –June) Copyright Audit (May) Copyright Academic Rollover (June) Quarterly Business Review (July –Sept) Yearly e-Library review (July) Financial Review (July) Student Survey Results (July) Library cover over student holiday period (August/September) Appendices will include a condensed version of ‘Lucy the Librarian top tips for successful solo librarianship’ (Note: Chapter 4 of the publication will expand on key elements and provide contextual examples) as well as providing templates and guidance notes that will be made available to download and used to aid those working in information, knowledge, libraries and related disciplines, whether based within the UK or around the world. The idea behind this practical handbook, therefore, is to provide guidance and templates to cover: Understanding the roles and responsibilities of a solo librarian Identifying library user needs, Benchmarking, Forming a clear structure – for Physical and Online Libraries, Acquisitions and financial management, Classification and cataloguing, Archives and records management, Copyright (incl. Referencing and Plagiarism), Intellectual Property, and Licensing, Communications and promotion, Where to access further Information, Advice, and Guidance, and more.

Download or read book Emerging Solutions in Reference Services written by John D. Edwards and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-18 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can you enhance reference services without adding staff? Modern law librarians are under growing pressure to keep up with new technologies, deal instantly with the demands of patrons, keep the library safe and user-friendly, and generally offer the best possible service while keeping costs down. Emerging Solutions in Reference Services: Implications for Libraries in the New Millennium is a very practical guide for coping with rapidly changing technology and increasing demands for services. Its sane, well-researched advice and suggestions can help you deal with the hectic days and nights behind the reference desk. Emerging Solutions in Reference Services suggests up-to-date, innovative ways to deal with the traditional issues confronting librarians, including: handling problem patrons and ensuring security assigning reference responsibilities teaching patrons at the reference desk or on library tours drafting enforceable rules avoiding the unauthorized practice of law charging--or not charging--fees for services cross-training reference personnel Some of the traditional problems of law librarians are solved by computers; others are actually exacerbated by the new technologies available. In addition to finding ways that technology can help law librarians, Emerging Solutions in Reference Services offers solutions for the special problems posed by new technology, including questions of Web design, setting up online reference services, virtual library tours, Internet training for patrons, and ensuring technological competency of staff. In these days of decreasing budgets and increasing demands for services, Emerging Solutions in Reference Services is an invaluable resource for the librarian caught in the middle.
