This feature suggests that health librarians who teach or support Higher Education ( HE ) students can and should gain accreditation and recognition for their teaching by the route of HEA Fellowship. We outline the process by which Fellowship could be attained by those working within HE and those in NHS libraries who work with HE students, suggesting which aspects of librarianship practice could provide the necessary evidence for Fellowship. The synergies between Fellowship and Chartership are examined and the criteria for HEA ( UK Professional Standards Framework or UKPSF ) are mapped against those for Chartership (Professional Knowledge and Skills Base ( PKSB ).
