Teaching Matters: Developing as a Teacher/Librarian Statements of teaching philosophy are most commonly associated with regular teaching faculty outside the library. In this column we will explore why librarians should also voice their philosophy of teaching, how it can benefit their students, themselves, and their institution. We’ll touch on resources for conceptualizing, writing, and using statements as well.
