All
I would like to know how many Acquisitions Librarians on the list are
tenured. The library administration at my institution has declared that
tenured librarians should not be working in tech services, but only public
services. I'm trying to gather information on whether there are
institutions that differentiate among librarian status and where they work
in the library.
As background, at American, we have 2 statuses - tenured or tenure-track
and Term librarians. The term librarians are on multi-year contracts and
their creative and scholarly duties are less than the tenured librarians.
There are 3 library faculty in tech services - 1 is tenured and 2 are
term. We are currently hiring for the Director of Technical Services and
that would be a term position.
thanks for any information you are willing to provide.
