The City Librarians Community of Practice was formed in late 2019 to fulfil a professional development need among librarians across the city. Librarians from across sectors were invited to join in this multi-sectoral CoP with the intent of it being an opportunity for networking, collaboration, and sharing of best practices. Multi-sectoral communities of practice are not common in the literature, with most CoPs focusing on a narrow subject area of interest or being hosted by a single institution. This study reports on the results of a survey of City librarians, including those who became members of the CoP and those who opted not to join. The survey was intended to garner anonymous feedback on the CoP, to determine its benefits, and to identify potential areas for growth and improvement. While the CoP did not directly impact practice of its members, there have been perceived indirect impacts, including the sharing of information, hearing about librarianship issues from other perspectives, and affective, social elements. Many members preferred an informal, flexible approach over a more rigid, academic slant towards meetings. Regular communication and check-ins with members and potential members is another identified way of handling the natural attrition that comes with CoPs and to continue to keep the CoP relevant and engaging for the librarians of City.","PeriodicalId":406213,"journal":{"name":"Partnership: The Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research","volume":"319 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122538453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research used a qualitative methodology, wherein nine participants shared thoughts and reflections in course discussion forums in response to six online modules, each outlining one the the six frames of the ACRL information literacy framework. The data-gathering phase of the study was bookended by focus groups that were also recorded. Analysis of these various discussions reveals that while tutors see the relevance of IL in their everyday lives, their responses in terms of their roles as tutors and students varies depending on the nature of their program. The need to budget research time efficiently in response to a heavy course load prevents some from pursuing information more broadly or deeply than strictly necessary. The paper considers implications of these insights for further inquiry into the library’s role in advancing IL development in a polytechnical environment.","PeriodicalId":406213,"journal":{"name":"Partnership: The Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130474630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Topics included workload, collegiality, and overall satisfaction with their working conditions during a pandemic. Themes emerged around job scurity, meaningful work, workload shifts, working from home, relationships with colleagues and administrators, and hopes for the future. While individual experiences varied greatly, the biggest uniting factor was the care and deliberation that characterized both our participants’ framing of work that was meaningful to them as well as their ideal relationships with colleagues and administrators. This research connects to previous literature on vocational awe and emotional labour in libraries. For librarians, this study connects isolated individual situations with the overall picture of what our work looked and felt like during the COVID-19 pandemic. For library administrators, we have identified some general trends, which can provide insight in the areas of communication, flexibility, and institutional support as we work toward a post-pandemic new normal.","PeriodicalId":406213,"journal":{"name":"Partnership: The Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129490343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pourtant, il existe relativement peu de recherches sur les pratiques et l’impact des bibliothèques en contexte linguistique minoritaire. Cette enquête exploratoire présente les résultats d’un sondage pancanadien sur les collections en français des bibliothèques publiques desservant les communautés francophones minoritaires au Canada, en mettant l'accent sur les pratiques du personnel des bibliothèques et leur niveau de satisfaction en ce qui concerne le développement, la promotion et l'évaluation de ces collections. L’analyse des résultats du sondage révèle quatre principaux facteurs, souvent interreliés, qui influencent le développement des collections dans les communautés francophones en situation minoritaire : le niveau de connaissance du français chez les employés, le recours à des fournisseurs et à des intermédiaires, le manque de ressources et de soutien, et le confinement du développement des collections aux contenus pour enfants et aux publics d'âge scolaire. Les résultats de cette étude sont partagés afin de susciter des discussions et une réflexion sur les défis uniques de ce travail.","PeriodicalId":406213,"journal":{"name":"Partnership: The Canadian Journal of Library and Information Practice and Research","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128653428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
