Finding the Right Fit : How (and Why!) Academic Libraries can Support Trades Education
Perspectives from two trades librarians on the landscape of our niche. We find that trades liaison librarians are woefully under-prepared to support a large portion of our student demographics; there are opportunities to come together in support of one another. Remarking on our experiences, the authors share reflections from others in the community and discuss what needs to be done to meet a growing need of student support.
