Truesdale, A., Lovas, N., & Krstevska, S. (2020). The BizLibratory : collaborative blogging for professional development and networking. Academic Brass.
In March 2019, I (Nancy) met Angel Truesdale and Summer Krstevska at the spring workshop organized by the Business Librarians in North Carolina (BLINC) section of the North Carolina Library Association (NCLA). We had all recently started our positions at institutions in North Carolina. In the course of our conversation, we realized we shared similar job responsibilities as well as wanted a place to write about our work. Soon, the BizLibratory blog was born (BizLibratory: think “business reference laboratory”). We write from our perspectives of being newer to the world of academic business librarianship, covering topics such as: instruction, research strategies and resources, conferences and professional development, outreach, entrepreneurship, collections, and more.
