Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated: 1) librarians’ strategic approaches which librarians could promote to build collaboration with teaching faculty, and 2) the intervening conditions in library, institutional and social contexts based on comparative case studies. A model of collaboration-building between teaching faculty and librarians at the University of Michigan was constructed. As categories of librarians’ approaches, “building interpersonal relationships,” “being involved in the community,” “designing customized services” and “informing their being and doing” were discovered. “Leadership of library managers” and “librarians’ competencies and personalities” were identified as categories of intervening conditions in library contexts, and “small community,” “operational support by departments” and “financial support by a university administrator” in institutional contexts. The data from Western University and the University of Tampere are now being analyzed.
