The Librarian on the Teaching Team

An essential partnership.

I’m here to make the case that a librarian is a key member of a course development and teaching team.

First - before we talk about librarians - let’s talk about teaching teams. My experience with building a team of faculty and non-faculty educators to design and run courses comes out of online learning. 

Let’s get back to librarians.

There are 3 immediate and obvious reasons that a librarian should be included on every faculty / non-faculty educator course development and teaching team:

·         Reason 1 - Experience:

·         Reason 2 - Working Directly With Students:         

·         Reason 3 - Content, Quality, and Open Educational Resources:

What do you see as the roadblocks and the challenges involved in integrating instructors, instructional designers, media educators, assessment experts, developers, and librarians into course development and teaching teams?

How do you make the case for librarians as educators - essential partners and collaborators in today’s high quality residential and online courses?
