3. Embedded librarianship takes a
librarian out of the context of
the traditional library and places
him or her in an “on-site” setting or
situation that enables close
coordination and collaboration with
researchers or teaching faculty.

waters. College & Research Libraries News72(3), pp. 167-170.

5. Practice does not exist in the abstract.
It exists because people are engaged in
actions whose meanings they negotiate
with one another ... Membership in a
community of practice is therefore a
matter of mutual engagement.
Wenger (1998) quoted in McCluskey, C. J. 2011. Creating information literacy partnerships in
Higher Education. Library and Information Research 35(11), pp. 59-72.

I just wanted to thank you for the
thorough feedback you gave me for my
Critical Bibliography task for our first

comments to improve it, and I now look
forward to producing a much higher
quality essay about the Roman Baths.
