Reviews

This volume in the series focuses on emotion in the library, an issue that struck a deep chord perhaps because many see librarianship as caring work, where there is an expectation of emotional engagement. The topics include the potential of mindfulness in managing emotions in libraries, constructing authority in professional practice: personal reflections, into the weeds: emotions and deselection in the library, legacy practices: implications for leadership, and using civility in the form of mindful speech and action to cultivate empathy among library employees. -- Annotation ©2017 * (protoview.com) *
