Call for Proposals: Book Chapters for Embedded Librarians
Editors of the forthcoming ACRL publications book Embedded Librarians: Moving beyond one-shot instruction , to be published late 2010, seek proposals for chapters from skilled librarians who have researched and/or implemented an embedded librarian program. The book will provide an overview of embedded librarianship within higher education. Chapters are sought about strategies for and experiences of creating a long-term embedded presence in multiple non-library settings, both online and in-person.
Potential topics include:
• Defining "embedded librarianship"
• History and background of embedded librarianship
• Embedding in the first year experience
• Embedding within departments
• Collaborating across departments to encourage embedded projects
• Embedding in online course management systems
• Embedding in the enterprise
• Assessing the success of embedded projects
• Future opportunities in embedded librarianship
Prospective authors should email a brief CV, a writing sample, and a one-page proposal for their chapter to [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask] . Proposals are due by January 30, 2010.
