Continuing Change, Constant Engagement considers the current environment, impact, and future directions of academic libraries in the Caribbean. This work presents a fresh approach to global academic library literature, featuring a uniquely Caribbean voice, and a futures mindset, while bridging critical gaps and charting new pathways forward. It features forward-thinking case studies, research findings, and historical perspectives from information professionals across the French, Spanish, and English-speaking Caribbean region.
Chapters illuminate transformative stories of libraries reimagining their responses to cultural shifts, redefining their purpose, and pioneering practices for engaging communities. Authors highlight triumphs and challenges in surpassing user expectations while navigating declining budgets, resource constraints, leadership issues, technological advancement, climate change, and post-pandemic realities.
Caribbean academic libraries are positioning themselves as future catalysts – supporting teaching, learning, and research while becoming engines of knowledge creation, institutional transformation, and regional development.
