Dear Colleagues,
In September 2006, we invited librarians on this
list who were working in academic/research
libraries and hold a doctorate in a discipline
other than LIS to participate in an online
survey. Many survey respondents requested that
we post information about the article's
publication back to the listserv. We are pleased
to say that the article appeared this month:
"Academic/Research Librarians with Subject
Doctorates: Data and Trends 19652006." portal:
Libraries and the Academy 8, no. 1 (January 2008): 31-52.
Those whose institutions subscribe to portal can access the article here:

This article focuses upon survey respondents'
demographic profile, educational background,
paths into librarianship, and range of positions
currently held. We plan a follow-up piece
concentrating on their experiences in the
workplace and views about the advantages and
disadvantages of academic librarianship as a career.
Many thanks to everyone who responded to our
survey! The data we gathered allowed us to write
the first in-depth article on academic librarians
with subject doctorates based on their own experiences.
Best wishes,
Todd Gilman, Librarian for Literature in English, Yale University Library &
Thea Lindquist, History and Germanic Language and
Literature Librarian, University of Colorado at Boulder Libraries
