[Lib-helig-l] Core Competencies for 21st Century CARL Librarians

Dear Colleagues

 

A useful read.  

 

From the Association of Research Libraries Nov/December newsletter:

 

On October 29, CARL-ABRC released "Core Competencies for 21st Century CARL Librarians," which provides librarians and library leaders with a rich resource offering a model for considering librarian competencies within a national framework. The competencies described include: fundamental knowledge, interpersonal skills, leadership and management, collections development, information literacy, and information technology skills. A bibliography is also provided.
