Developmental Relationships in the Dynamic Library Environment: Re-Conceptualizing Mentoring for the Future
Murphy, Sarah Anne
Journal of Academic Librarianship, v34 n5 p434-437 Sep 2008
This article examines the current conceptualization of mentoring in academic libraries and argues that traditional hierarchical mentoring relationships are no longer sufficient for developing tomorrow's leaders. Drawing insights from the management and human resources development literature, it concludes that an expanded understanding of developmental work relationships in libraries is needed.
