by Jessica E. Shiers (Editor), Harriet M. Sonne de Torrens (Editor), Joanna Szurmak (Editor)

This edited collection of seven critical essays is focused on the changing dynamics of academic librarianship through the lens of Canadian professionals responding to the corporatization of their scholarly workplaces and the erosion of their communities of practice. The contributors' underlying concern is the transformation of academic libraries from sites of collegial scholarly activity into hierarchically led operations driven by values and priorities alien to academia. Consequently, all contributions in this volume reflect on various aspects of this neoliberal turn shaping the political economy of knowledge production and dissemination of information, as well as changes in academic teaching, funding, institutional relationships, and the publishing industry. The unifying core of this volume is the fundamental role of professional academic librarianship in an increasingly techno-global, post-pandemic environment.


Jessica E. Shiers is currently the Head of Collections for the Algonquin College library system as well as a Librarian and Coordinator for the Ottawa campus. She has an Honours BSc. from the University of Guelph, an MLIS from Wayne State University and holds a Ph.D. from the Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto.
