New roles for librarians, means new job descriptions. We will share the experiences of three institutions who have developed new job descriptions that incorporate responsibilities for integrating scholarly communication and information literacy. Librarians from three institutions that vary in size and type will report on how they have developed job descriptions and expectations for librarians in these areas and provide insights on issues for participants to consider before incorporating these changes in your own libraries. Learn about successful techniques as well as challenges faced when integrating these roles into responsibilities for academic librarians. Examples of job descriptions along with related …

Faculty Perceptions Of Open Access Author Fees, Anne E. Rauh
Anne Rauh
In fall 2013, librarians at Syracuse University and Cornell University surveyed STEM faculty to learn about their experiences with, and perceptions of, open access publishing and the author fees that may accompany that model.

This poster will highlight the cautious optimism found in the results along with suggestions for librarians to further faculty understanding of and participation in open access publishing.

These demands present an opportunity and a need for librarians to step …
