A Report on Librarian-Faculty Relations from a Sociological Perspective
Christiansen, Lars; Stombler, Mindy; Thaxton, Lyn
Journal of Academic Librarianship, v30 n2 p116-121 Mar 2004
In this report, we review social science and library studies literatures on librarian-faculty relations, and present a preliminary sociological analysis of these relations. We find an asymmetrical disconnection between both groups: Librarians and faculty identify a disconnection that keeps the two separated, but only librarians view this disconnection as problematic.
