In this book the editors, with decades of library instruction and academic library experience between them, and their contributors. Define personal librarianship and trace how it has developed within the broader context of the work that librarians do. Demonstrate its radical potential to impact student learning, retention, and graduation rates. Discuss how the concept relates to embedded librarianship and academic library liaisons, and the role of faculty and staffIllustrate how personalization can be supported by academic support centers, IT services, Student Affairs, and other college and university departmentsUse case studies from a variety of institutions to show how to develop and implement a Personal Librarian program.
