Association of Part-Time Librarians

An International Virtual Organization

For Part-Time Librarians

About the Bibliography :

Because we recognize that part-time librarians face some issues that are different from those faced by full-time librarians, we have found articles that respond to these issues. We hope you'll find them helpful. A quick check for more recent articles reveals a lack of new work in this area. May that inspire some of you to publish academic articles on part-time librarianship.
