Openness and the Library Experience
by Stephen Abram

“What is open? In order to be embedded librarians, it is less than debatable that information professionals must be open-minded and open to new experiences. On a personal basis I have had many conversations with embedded librarians who report that the experience is, in addition to being a growth experience, also quite enjoyable, professionally satisfying and exciting. They also note that it can be uncomfortable, ambiguous and, sometimes, less than secure but with more upside potential for their career and compensation.”

How open can we be?

Hope you like it.
