(13 June 2016) A Task Force chaired by EIFL has released two new librarians’ competency profiles that will help to build capacity in libraries for supporting new roles in the area of scholarly communication and e-research.
The librarians’ competency profiles were released during the ELPUB 2016 conference, which took place from 7 – 9 June 2016 in Göttingen, Germany.
The profiles will enable library managers to identify skill gaps in their institution, form the basis of job descriptions, enable professionals to carry out self-assessments, and act as a foundation for the development of training programmes for librarians and library professionals.
The announcement in full and a link to the Profiles is here.
