Abstract
Introduces 17 case studies of educational innovations in academic libraries from teaching-oriented and research-intensive institutions in the USA, UK, Ireland and the Netherlands. Academic libraries have always played a vital part in the educational mission of their institutions, but their learning and teaching role has grown and diversified with the continual expansion of higher education, advances in technology, changes in pedagogy, pressures on budgets and resources, and turbulence in politics and society. Examples illustrate reframing information literacy for diverse contexts, aligning library initiatives with institutional goals, collaborating strategically in disciplinary settings and in library spaces, leadership and partnership in developing open educational resources, reorganising for stakeholder engagement, professional development tools for teaching librarians and approaching educational innovation as a social process. Cross-cutting themes include the progressive integration of academic, information and digital literacies; a focus on supporting students through educational transitions; and the role of reflection in learning and teaching.
