The Blended Librarian Web Site
Blended Librarianship is a relatively new idea having first emerged as a concept developed by Steven Bell and John Shank in January 2004. In April 2004 Bell and Shank delivered a three-session workshop on Blended Librarianship that was sponsored by the TLT Group and ACRL. With support from the LearningTimes Network, the Blended Librarian Online Learning Community also became available in April 2004. As of August 2004 the community has approximately 80 members. The seminal article on Blended Librarianship appeared in the July/August 2004 issue of College & Research Libraries News. Here is the definition from our C&RL News article: An academic librarian who combines the traditional skill set of librarianship with the information technologist’s hardware/software skills, and the instructional or educational designer’s ability to apply technology appropriately in the teaching-learning process.
