Unveiling Solo Librarianship: Challenges and Innovations

We are delighted to introduce our guest Lucy Roper, author of "The Solo Librarian." Lucy shares her journey, from navigating the professional landscape as a solo librarian to writing her book that guides others in similar positions. She discusses the challenges solo librarians face, including workload management and isolation, and offers strategies for overcoming them.

The conversation also explores the evolving role of school librarians in the age of AI, highlighting the need for librarians to adapt to new technologies while maintaining their core role of supporting education. Ruth, a co-host and solo librarian, adds her insights on career progression, networking, and the importance of collaboration in enhancing the librarian’s role.

Join us to learn about innovative approaches in school librarianship and how librarians can continue to make a significant impact in the educational sector.
