[Irtalk] Beyond Gatekeepers of Knowledge: Scholarly Communication Practices of Academic Librarians and Archivists at ARL Institutions

[Hilton Gibson]

Librarians and archivists are intimately involved in scholarly
communication systems, both as information providers and instructors.*
However, very little is known regarding their activities as scholars.* This
study seeks to examine the scholarly communication practices of librarians
and archivists, the role that tenure plays in scholarly communication
practices, and the degree to which institutional support is provided in
librarians’ efforts to consume and disseminate research and reports of best
practices
