Abstract
Despite the prevalence of project-based work in academic libraries, there is a notable variance among academic libraries in their application of formal project management methods. This scoping review examines peer-reviewed academic literature to uncover examples of formal project management methods, techniques, and tools being utilized in academic libraries in order to identify broader trends about the methodologies used, the settings in which they are applied, and the successes or challenges the libraries have experienced. The study concludes with recommendations for future research and a call for a more rigorous integration of project management training in library science education, to better prepare librarians for the increasingly project-oriented nature of library work.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Academic Librarianship, an international and refereed journal, publishes articles that focus on problems and issues germane to college and university libraries. JAL provides a forum for authors to present research findings and, where applicable, their practical applications and significance; analyze policies, practices, issues, and trends; speculate about the future of academic librarianship; present analytical bibliographic essays and philosophical treatises. JAL also brings to the attention of its readers information about hundreds of new and recently published books in library and information science, management, scholarly communication, and higher education. JAL, in addition, covers management and discipline-based software and information policy developments.
