Mentoring Program
Vision Statement
Mentoring in the University of Maryland Libraries
is an invitation for all library staff to learn and grow.
The University of Maryland Libraries Mentoring Program
is offered to provide personal and professional development
for all library staff, of all categories.
It is designed to help staff succeed, to empower them
to make decisions, to enhance self-awareness and to
promote a sense of belonging.
Of mutual benefit to both the Mentor and the
Mentee, the Mentoring Program will ultimately enable
the Libraries to provide the best possible service to its
patrons and thus contribute to the fulfillment of
the Libraries' mission.
"…mentorships benefit the profession, libraries and individuals. They hasten career development, promote networking and link generations of leaders."
