Abstract
Abstract Faculty status for academic librarians has historically presented controversies for librarianship and higher education. This paper explores these dilemmas and details the responsibilities and qualifications that go along with faculty status, arguing for a clearly defined profession of academic librarianship and librarian’s faculty status in higher education.
期刊介绍:
Public Services Quarterly covers a broad spectrum of public service issues in academic libraries, presenting practical strategies for implementing new initiatives and research-based insights into effective practices. The journal publishes research-based and theoretical articles as well as case studies that advance the understanding of public services, including reference and research assistance, information literacy instruction, access and delivery services, and other services to patrons. Articles may examine creative ways to use technology to assist students and faculty. Practice-based articles should be thoroughly grounded in the literature and should situate the work done in one library into the larger context of the situation.
