    IS Management & Leadership Discussion on Slow Librarianship & Another Upcoming Event

    Nov 16, 2021 10:51 AM

    Sheila Stoeckel

    Our relationship to work is changing for many reasons, including the COVID-19 pandemic. Many librarians report burnout, shifting priorities, and a desire to return to our most critical work. While our workplaces changed rapidly since March of 2020, some argue that the continued corporatization of higher education is fueling workplaces full of urgency and a demand for change for change's sake. How does this impact our work as managers and leaders in libraries? What role does innovation play in information literacy programs? And importantly, how can we sustain meaningful work while maintaining a culture of care? 

     

    The ACRL Instruction Section Management & Leadership committee is hosting two opportunities for small group discussion around "slow librarianship" and the constant push for innovation. To guide the informal discussions, we will recommend an optional pre-reading. There will be no presentation, but instead a chance to chat, learn, and maybe even strategize with a small group of colleagues who are working through similar issues.

     

    The two discussions planned are:

     

    Discussion Event #1

    Discussion Topic: Slow librarianship and the pressures of information literacy instruction

     

    Discussion Event #2: Save the Date

    • Discussion Topic: The culture of innovation in information literacy instruction  
    • Date/Time: Wednesday, 12 January 2022 from 1:00-2:00 PM (CST)
    • Registration: coming soon

     

    If you have any questions about this discussion series please contact the organizers Amanda Click or Sheila Stoeckel.
