New AAUP Publishes New Guidelines on Librarians – Stephen's Lighthouse

New AAUP Publishes New Guidelines on Librarians – Stephen's Lighthouse | The Information Professional | Scoop.it

The American Association of University Professors has updated guidelines for  librarians to reflect their changing roles as teachers and researchers. The  joint Statement on Faculty Status of College and University  Librarians (http://www.aaup.org/report/joint-statement-faculty-status-college-and-university-librarians) now includes language on technology in the library and recommends  that institutions adequately compensate librarians for the 12-month cycles in  which they typically work.
