Adding an Extra Helping of Service when You Already Have a Full Plate: Building an Embedded Librarian Program
Chesnut, Mary Todd; Wesley, Threasa L.; Zai, Robert, III
Public Services Quarterly, v6 n2-3 p122-129 2010
The librarians at Northern Kentucky University's W. Frank Steely Library have successfully added a new embedded librarianship program to their established reference and instruction services, without the support of increased staffing. In fact, this program was established and has matured during a period of staff reductions. The decisions made in planning and implementing this new service, which allowed for a significant expansion of programming, are detailed.
