crl-16450	Munde, Gail; Coonin, Bryna	Cross-Generational Valuing Among Peer Academic Librarians	2015	14	.pdf	application/pdf	7212	232	30	Gail Munde and Bryna Coonin, Attribution-NonCommercial (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/) CC BY-NC This study investigated the skills, knowledge, abilities or dispositions that are most valued and respected by academic librarians, and determined how these qualities might, or might not, be associated with generational membership. There are a number of reports on generational diversity and ageism in librarianship, ably summarized by Lancaster in 2003, Hutley and Solomon in 2004, Gordon in 2006, Martin in 2006, and Chu in 2009.1 Empirical research concern- ing generational differences in the workplace does exist within the general manage- ment literature, as examined by Twenge in 2010, but rigorous empirical research is not available on how intergenerational colleagues actually relate to one another in the academic library work setting.2 Should we assume that the intergenerational differences represented in the management literature automatically apply to academic librarians?	cache/crl-16450.pdf	txt/crl-16450.txt
