| description |
Three library professionals share their perspectives on transitioning from STEM research to librarianship. A STEM PhD or postdoctoral researcher can bring technical expertise and a deep understanding of researcher culture to library services and at the same time put their skill sets to use in unexpected and interesting ways. A postdoctoral position focused on an emerging area such as open science can provide the perfect opportunity for libraries to leverage the unique skill sets of doctoral students who are increasingly exploring careers beyond research track faculty.
