As the information landscape evolves and takes shape using
traditional and new platforms, it is the role of Academic Libraries
to take the lead in communicating, developing and informing these
changes in timely and relevant ways. Experienced librarians and
those new to the field seek out innovative and more effective way
to engage with users and stakeholders. This book provides a variety
of communication strategies for different user groups, taking into
account the changing information landscape and the application and
implications of social media developments. A major driver in higher
education is the change in the scholarly communication model where
initiatives such as Open Access, Institutional Repositories and
Data Management are challenging previous practice whilst offering
new opportunities for leadership. These communication developments
provide opportunities for academic librarians who need the insight
and awareness to take these chances. Librarian as Communicator
provides research-based explorations of the above topics, covering
developing areas and also the communication skills that are needed
for the academic library to have a continuing role in the 21st
Century. It was originally published as a special issue of the
journal New Review of Academic Librarianship.
