Abstract
How do you stay engaged as a mid-career librarian? Alyssa Martin, Amy Smith, and Debbie West discuss ways to stay engaged. Suggestions include taking advantage of opportunities such as learning new technology to teach, staying active in professional associations, presenting at conferences, writing articles, participating in grants, making lateral job transfers, mentoring other librarians, and going back to school.
