- Forget the Desk Job: Current Roles and Responsibilities in Entry-Level Reference Job Advertisements Detmering, Robert Sproles, Claudene Librarians Reference Services Occupational Information Academic Libraries Staff Role Responsibility Entry Workers Advertising Content Analysis Information Literacy Library Instruction Coordinators Library Services Library Development Library Administration Web Sites This study examines the evolving roles and responsibilities of entry-level academic reference positions, as stated in recent job advertisements posted on the American Library Association's JobLIST Web site and other sources. Findings from a content analysis of these advertisements indicate that current entry-level reference positions in academic libraries incorporate a strikingly diverse and complex range of responsibilities. The study provides valuable insight into the expectations and priorities of hiring institutions in regard to entry-level reference work, offering a broad perspective on the reference job environment to library science students, first-time job seekers, and libraries seeking to recruit entry-level candidates.
