\u201cCarlette has been an asset to the UI Libraries for many years, and I\u2019m so pleased that she has earned this honor,\u201d says Nancy L. Baker, University Librarian. \u201cShe has managed an excellent staff development program at a time of tremendous change in libraries and her work in assessment has helped us respond to the needs of today\u2019s library users.\u201d<\/p>\n
ARL sponsors the program to address the needs of research libraries for a more diverse professional workforce that can contribute to library success in serving increasingly diverse scholarly and learning communities. The 18-month program prepares mid-career librarians from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups to take on increasingly demanding leadership roles in research libraries. It consists of several components: Leadership Institutes hosted across the country throughout the program, a Career Coach and personal visit to an ARL library and a research project related to one of the ARL strategic directions. Through contacts with experts and research library leaders, these program elements are combined to allow participants to explore the strategic issues faced by research libraries in the digital environment, leadership roles within research libraries and career development options and opportunities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
