Survey Responses

The purpose of this research was to evaluate academic library residency programs that successfully recruit and retain academic librarians of color. This study examines library residencies in the United States and discusses findings of two nationwide surveys. One survey posed questions to residents about the structure of their residencies, aspects residents found most helpful for career advancement, and their thoughts on diversity initiatives. The coordinators were asked many of the same questions as the residents but also about the administrative aspects of their programs. The survey responses reveal a need to provide residents with structured mentoring, along with a sense of belonging and value. Library residency programs can play an integral part in the larger recruitment, retention, and diversity initiatives in the profession.

Professional Transitions

In light of a projected shortage of registered nurses, nurses trained overseas may present a viable solution. However, these nurses will likely need to surmount many obstacles in order to integrate into the profession in the United States. This chapter reviews the barriers faced by internationally trained nurses to entering the nursing profession. Secondly, it argues for the importance of addressing and facilitating personal and professional transitions in helping deskilled nurses as they pursue nursing licensure. In doing so, it will reflect on the researcher's research with internationally educated nurses and their experiences in a National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) preparation program. Finally, implications for adult education practitioners who help internationally educated nurses, as well as other deprofessionalized immigrants rebuild their careers in the United States are discussed.

Males And Females

Contemporary women from technological cultures are often perceived as self- rather than family- or relationship-oriented. Whether true or false, this perception creates problems in communication between males and females in the United States, especially in communities where black women grounded in African-world views attempt to respond to conflicting western cultural orientations. Issues of marriage, child-care, economics, employment, career advancement, and race relations have often contributed to the nexus of confusion surrounding the education and work of black women in a highly industrialised society.
