The average rating for Diversity in Libraries: Academic Residency Programs, Vol. 94 based on 2 reviews is 3.5 stars.

Review # 1 was written on 2018-11-18 00:00:00 Fallon Ryan Good first-hand perspectives on academic residency programs (though, written in 2001, so somewhat dated at this point). Able to pull a couple of very good quotes though.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-04-10 00:00:00 Mark Chamberlin sparse, written for the action-oriented, to use his own terminology. I would have liked more examples of how the situation plays out with a manager of one orientation and employees of another. There is a faux-case study that is revisited throughout the book but the "voice" is off, it gives the same judgmental attitude to every "character," when I think only some of them would think that way. Useful paradigms: "ascribed" versus "achieved" authority; and the model of action/ process/ task/ role orientation.
