The editors, Erin L. Ellis and Jill K. Becker, seek chapter proposals for Engagement in Action: Academic Libraries Advancing Institutional Goals<\/em>. This edited volume will include chapters that describe academic librarian engagement as defined in the 2025 College & Research Libraries<\/em> article \u201cDefining Engagement for Academic Librarians<\/a>\u201d:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n “A strategic, formal exchange between committed parties that creates reciprocal, collaborative relationships and yields mutual benefits while advancing university, library, and department goals.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n We invite proposals from authors who can describe areas of academic librarianship that meet this definition of engagement, how their engagement work is articulated, executed, and supported, and how it is assessed. The goal of this volume is to feature practical examples and applications that will aid in assessing and communicating the value of engagement work and demonstrate how a clear definition of engagement can be applied and assessed in real contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please see the full Call for Proposals<\/a> for more information and details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Proposal Guidelines<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We invite proposals from anyone working in academic libraries regardless of classification, rank, position, or status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
