The <a href=\"https:\/\/call.infosci.utk.edu\">Collaborative Analysis Liaison Librarians (CALL)<\/a> master\u2019s level instructional program will build curriculum for liaison librarianship, and fund the education of a cohort of 14 on-campus students pursuing science library liaison roles.<\/p>\n<p>The grant\u2019s principal investigator is SIS Associate Professor Wade Bishop, who said the project will create skilled professionals to fill emerging roles for liaisons in various science-focused agencies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOak Ridge National Laboratory, U.S. Geological Survey, National Center for Atmospheric Research \u2013 they all need more information professionals with science backgrounds at these agencies,\u201d Bishop said.<\/p>\n<p>Curriculum for a new SIS pathway will be created as part of the CALL project, which will educate a cohort of 14 leaders from at UT and DU in science library liaison roles and every student will complete an immersive practicum in a participating science agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy working with the students and learning what their needs are, we can construct curriculum. Also, interacting with students who are asking questions will help our own internal training and procedures,\u201d said Peter Fernandez, an agricultural sciences and natural resources librarian with UT Libraries and CALL senior personnel.<\/p>\n<p>Bishop said another component of the project is conducting job analyses by way of surveys and interviews with people in different communities of practice to ensure the curriculum is informed by real-world practice.<\/p>\n<p>Chancellor\u2019s Professor Suzie Allard is a co-principal investigator on CALL, and said the two universities involved have unique ties to the science community that differentiated them from others vying for the competitive IMLS grant.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTennessee is the only university with a full-time paid librarian liaison between a university and a national lab,\u201d Allard pointed out.<\/p>\n<p>There are currently four SIS students in the initial cohort: Hannah Armendarez, Erika Fitzpatrick, Ashley Orehek and Shafer Powell.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been working in the environmental consulting industry and found the things I like \u2013 like database management,\u201d Armendarez said, explaining why she decided to enter an information sciences program. \u201cI didn\u2019t know what a science librarian was but I had a friend tell me that it sounded like a job made up just for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then the opportunity to be a part of the CALL cohort arose, and it seemed to be the perfect chance to pursue science librarianship. The other three students echoed similar sentiments, though all of them are from different scientific backgrounds.<\/p>\n<p>You can learn more about the project, it\u2019s team members and the IMLS grant at the <a href=\"https:\/\/call.infosci.utk.edu\">project\u2019s website &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>The views, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this article do not necessarily represent those of the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
