develop a set of important core skills needed for this profession.
Leading authorities in the field of librarianship offer their
extensive experience and insight to help beginners to understand
precisely what actual measurable skills are required to become a
successful career science librarian. Librarians currently working
in the area will gain the data they need to be able to effectively
collaborate with more experienced people. Topics include reviews of
key concepts, basic skills, terminology, ACRL instruction
competencies, teams, and assessment of services. It also provides
the latest knowledge on trends, standards, terminology,
professional associations, and a brief literature review, and
recommended readings for familiarizing librarians with their job
responsibilities. Besides job competencies, the book reviews
collection development, reference issues, in-depth research
assistance, cataloging and metadata, faculty liaison and outreach,
career development concerns, continuing education tracks, and
issues in collaboration assistance. This source also provides
extensive references and tables and figures to clearly present
information. This book is a valuable resource for beginners who
wonder what they need to know as they start their careers or are
considering this as an area of concentration, and as a refresher
and professional development track for current librarians working
with more experienced people in the area. This book was published
as a special issue of Science & Technology Libraries.
