  • Promotion: Responsibilities, Policies and Procedures. Menendez, Miguel And Others Committees Evaluation Criteria Higher Education Job Performance Library Administration Library Personnel Personnel Evaluation Professional Recognition Promotion (Occupational) Designed by librarians and administrators of the Florida International University in compliance with the requirements of the Florida Board of Regents, this document contains a list of responsibilities, policies, and procedures for the promotion process in library administration. It is noted that the promotion decision is one of the most important decisions in which a professional in higher education may be involved, and therefore should be conducted in a positive atmosphere with adequate provision of time and other resources. The following topics are covered: (1) responsibilities of participants, including individual librarians, their colleagues, department head/supervisor, library director, promotion committee, and president; (2) promotion policies, including basic criteria such as education, experience, and job performance, as well as specific criteria by rank and policies governing the composition of the promotion committee; and (3) promotion procedures, including documentation, application for promotion, promotion file contents, job performance evaluation, and meetings of the promotion committee. Appendices include a form for promotion recommendations, a candidate's promotion application form, instructional and research class specifications for specific positions, and a list of research, scholarly, or creative activities that would count toward promotion together with definitions of each.
