PROBLEMS
INCONSISTENCY • Librarians are inconsistent in their attendance of department meetings. Some librarians go to every meeting, and some rely on receiving information via email.
1
“I don’t usually go– I probably should, but all the information gets emailed to me anyway.”
2
“It’s difficult to build those relationships, especially for newer librarians. Some of them just stop trying.”
LACK OF EFFORT • Not all University Library librarians make a true effort to build solid relationships with the faculty and administration in their specific departments. When asked about this situation, they said that it is a tricky situation because the relationships have to be two-way.
