2018 Snezek Library Leadership Institute

Overview

The Snezek Library Leadership Institute for library directors/deans will be held at Houghton College in Houghton, New York. The Snezek Institute, with select preparatory readings and multiple sessions on a variety of pertinent topics and issues, provides a forum for CCCU library directors and deans to engage in lively, informative, and stimulating conversation.

It provides a distinctive opportunity for the exchange of perspectives, ideas and experiences along the dynamic landscape of academic libraries and their role in scholarly communication and student learning. A hallmark of the Snezek Institute is its constructive collegial exchange and interpersonal encounters founded upon a common context of faith-based institutions and personal Christian commitment.

The planning committee is working hard to develop an excellent program which will include:

• Opening address by Mary Ann Mavrinac, vice provost and the Neilly Dean at the University of Rochester Libraries, author of the essay “A Tale of Two Libraries,” and co-author of “Pay it Forward: Mentoring New Information Professionals.”
• Discussion and sessions on:
  • Developing a culture of staff innovation
  • Chief academic officers panel
  • Diversity in library staffing
  • And more!
