UMass Amherst Libraries Librarian Engagement Framework: moving forward
The Liaison Advisory Council (“LAC”) developed the attached document over the past couple of
months. The purpose of it is to serve as an internal document to guide UMass librarians. The
Framework intentionally broadens staff involved in what we currently refer to as the “Liaison
Program” because the suite of services and expertise the Libraries offers has grown beyond the
‘liaison program’ paradigm as it has been described up to this point
Librarians have had the opportunity to review and comment on the document. When reviewing it,
librarians were asked to note if their work activities are reflected in the document–and if not to inform
the LAC so they may be added. Numerous additions and revisions have been made based on the
feedback received, with the goal that all UMass Amherst librarians will see themselves in the
Framework.
The document will serve as a guide for the Librarian Engagement Framework, once SMG has
approved it. It will be reviewed on a yearly basis by the LAC.
