About the Editor and Contributors
Recenzii
Academic libraries are increasingly seen as a hub for faculty and student engagement across curricular and co-curricular programs, and a catalyst for innovation across the academic enterprise. Thriving at the center of a swiftly changing higher education experience requires academic librarians to be prepared to take advantage of a host of opportunities to demonstrate the impact of their work on teaching, learning, and scholarship, and this requires a broader introduction to the academic enterprise as part of LIS education and a commitment to continued learning about its future directions. Gilman and his co-authors provide one of the best introductions currently available to the array of challenges and opportunities that academic librarians must embrace as they plan their careers and their continuing professional education in this environment of transformational change.
