The Academic Teaching Librarian?s Handbook is
a comprehensive resource for academic library
professionals and LIS students looking to pursue a teaching role in their
work and to develop this aspect of their professional lives in a holistic way
throughout their careers. The book is built around the core ideas of reflective
self-development and informed awareness of one?s personal professional
landscape. Through engaging with a series of exercises and reflective pauses in
each chapter, readers are encouraged to reflect on their professional identity,
self-image, self-efficacy and progress as they consider each of the different
aspects of the teaching role.

This handbook will:

provide
a comprehensive resource on teaching, professional development and reflective
practice for academic teaching librarians at all stages of their careers

explore
the current landscape of teaching librarianship in higher education, and highlight
the important developments, issues and trends that are shaping current and
future practice

examine
the roles and responsibilities of the academic teaching librarian in the
digital era

introduce
the essential areas of development, skill and knowledge that will empower
current and future professionals in the role

inspire
prospective and current academic teaching librarians to adopt a broad
conception of the role that goes beyond the basic idea of classroom-based
teaching, and provide practical tools to engage in personal development and
career planning in this area.

 

The Academic Teaching Librarian?s Handbook is an indispensable reference, suitable
for early career professionals at the start of their teaching journey, as well
as mid- or late-career librarians who may have moved into leadership and
managerial roles and who wish to advance their teaching role to the next level.

'I have admired the easy to read but very professional language of the author and also explored the methods and techniques that she has used throughout the text as educational devices: personal reflection points, cleverly constructed exercises, usage of layout means, structuring of the text and figures. This book is definitely for librarians, but also for students of information science and their teachers.'
