Jennifer Duncan and Sylvia McAphee exemplify career paths that differ from traditionally defined job descriptions and assigned responsibilities. In the course of their careers, both of these librarians have assumed simultaneous roles in Technical and Public Services departments. In this presentation, they challenge librarians working in traditional roles to embrace opportunities to serve in positions outside their assigned job descriptions in spite of barriers imposed by peer or administrative adherence to narrowly defined roles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
