Be a Proactive Librarian
Dear Professionals,
Good Morning!
It is my pleasure to share with you my experience on “BE a PROACTIVE LIBRARIAN”.
I have been appointed a Librarian at Sacred Heart College, Tiruapattur on 1st June , 2016. (I have shared this on Dec 21, 2015 in lislinks when I was an Asst. Lib).
I have taken few initiatives in planning of library services and few objectives for my personal growth. I started working on these for the past 30 days. The outcome was excellent, So I wanted to share with you in this forum that will help you to implement in your institution or wherever you can.
- Submit your Annual Plan to Principal or Secretary or Incharge. (It shows that you are proactive)
- Share your Ideas, Views and reflections during the meetings. Workshops and other common programs (It shows you are able to communicate, Creativity and open-minded)
- Share your feedback on use of library services among staff or HOD (It creates an atmosphere that library staff are active)
- Explore your services, ideas to the stakeholders via display board or mail or sms. (It make the students to utilize the resources effectively)
There are ways to show our responsibilities and reflections so that stakeholders will have positive image on you and your self confidence also will be increased.
Note: I have attached my Annual plan
