Distance librarians as engaged professionals work in a complex environment of changes in technologies, user expectations, and institutional goals.

Suggestions include physical and virtual conferences, professional journals for reflective reading, short-term webinars about current topics and innovative approaches, blogs for sharing ideas, and discussion and interest groups for networking with colleagues about best practices, leadership, and serving academic populations.
