About NASIG

Core Competencies Task Force

Charge
To develop a statement for NASIG's endorsement that describes core competencies for serials and electronic resources librarians. The purpose of this/these statements is to provide librarian educators with a basis for developing curriculum with a specialized focus and to provide employers with a basis for describing these specialized positions and with criteria upon which to evaluate the performance of those who hold them. The statement will be based on current research and complement ALA's Core Competences for Librarianship. The statement will also be flexible enough to remain relevant in the face of constant change and advances in technology as it is applied to the selection, organization, management, and delivery of library resources.
