Are you new to a special collections environment, or are you interested in
moving in that direction? Learn how to encourage meaningful use of special
collections.

This course offers students a broad overview of the front-end functions of
special collections librarianship:

- reference and public services
- instruction
- exhibition
- digital initiatives

Students who successfully complete the course will:
- understand and respect established professional best practices, legal
responsibilities, and ethical considerations in a special collections
environment;
- creatively re-imagine the role and potential of special collections
libraries;
- be able to exercise professional judgement and balance these impulses
when evaluating existing libraries or proposing new initiatives.


Robin M. Katz is a librarian, archivist, and educator who works to connect
people to primary sources in meaningful and innovative ways. She is
currently the Primary Source Literacy Librarian at the University of
California, Riverside, a position she crafted after serving on the joint
task force that authored the new Primary Source Literacy Guidelines. She
co-created TeachArchives.org based on a groundbreaking US Department of
Education grant she led at Brooklyn Historical Society. She has spent over
a decade in special collections public services after receiving her MLIS
from Kent State University and her BA from Brandeis University.

This is an online class that is taught asynchronously, meaning that
participants do the work on their own time as their schedules allow. The
class does not meet together at any particular times, although the
instructor may set up optional sychronous chat sessions. Instruction
includes readings and assignments in one-week segments. Class participation
is in an online forum environment.
