Perspectives on ... Developing a Culture of Collaboration: Librarian as Consultant
Donham, Jean; Green, Corey Williams
Journal of Academic Librarianship, v30 n4 p314-321 Jul 2004
Initiating a consulting model for librarianship in a small college library involved a transition to an organizational model that defines positions by their relationship to constituencies. As a case study of such a transformation demonstrates, such an ''outward'' looking organization has resulted in an increased number of instruction sessions, increased circulation of materials, and the development of collaborative, collegial relationships with teaching faculty.
