Developing the New Learning Environment
The changing role of the academic librarian
Edited by Philippa Levy and Sue Roberts
In a rapidly changing environment where increasingly the boundaries are blurring between librarians' roles and those of learning technologists, information technologists, educational developers, skill support specialists and, indeed, academic staff, the academic librarian needs not only to embrace new opportunities but also to influence proactively the development of learning environments.
This essential book captures and critically discusses the librarian's changing learning support role in an educational context, providing guidance and practical support.
