Boundaries and Burnout: Thriving in the Academic Library

Abstract

Academic Library Workers in Conversation is a C&RL News series focused on elevating the everyday conversations of library professionals. The wisdom of the watercooler has long been heralded, but this series hopes to go further by minimizing barriers to traditional publishing with an accessible format. Each of the topics in the series were proposed by the authors and they were given space to explore. This issue’s conversation is about boundary setting and supervision in the academic library. Our authors see a better future when we all can understand the boundaries that set us free.—Dustin Fife, series editor
