I need to clarify my question about solo librarians in a departmental -
academic art library.

What I am after is how many art librarians are the SOLO PROFESSIONAL
librarian in an academic departmental library?  I, for example, have three
staff members.  So, please who reply to my query should also indicate how
many staff members they have.

While in our case, there is much the support staff and do and does do very
well, there is an awful lot that I can not delegate to them.

I hope this makes clarifies my question.  Ray Anne

Ray Anne:  I assume this question means that the librarian is the ONLY
full-time staff member in the branch library in a university setting?
