Research output: Contribution to conference › Presentation

Abstract

After a decade in public libraries, a move to the world of academic libraries is exciting, new and-sometimes-an exercise in learning how to see the world one is accustomed to as if it were suddenly turned slightly sideways. This discussion address the little differences a newcomer to academic libraries sees in the first months of an academic career and asks the audience to think about little details of their everyday business that may not be as little as they believe.
