Jumping Ship from Public to Academic: What to Expect During this Journey

Are you curious about academic librarianship? Are you a public librarian who is considering switching? While there can be many reasons you might consider switching to academia, join us for this webinar where Courtney Block will talk about her journey. She will discuss the differences and similarities between public and academic libraries, the surprising aspects of academia, the benefits of academic librarianship, and the struggles that she’s encountered during this transition. If you are curious about the implications of switching your career focus, come and join us to get your questions and concerns answered.

(No need to travel to the Indiana State Library, you can attend from the comfort of your own library!)
