A panel of librarians from Portland State University, Oregon State University, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, California University of Pennsylvania, University of Montana, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and Montana State University discussed their situations with distance librarianship. They've posted their individual summaries online at http://tinyurl.com/dlspanel Ultimately the discussion lead to the summary that the distinction between roles really depends on the college and library setup as well as librarian personality and levels of comfort. The Distance Librarians definitely serve as the primary advocate for distance library services, but might not be the only provider of those services. The session ended with comments from the audience that supplemented the presentation. We are all in similar boats!
