Librarianship has been conceptualized as a vocation or calling—rather than a profession—since the 1800s. Within this historical context, librarians are encouraged to think of ourselves as possessing a natural disposition to showing perpetual engagement, enthusiasm, and self-regulation in pursuit of our shared vocation. These assumptions about the profession can sometimes shield us from introspective criticism, but they can also prevent us from recognizing and managing the systemic occupational issues that afflict us. Academic Librarian Burnout can help librarians develop the agency to challenge the assumptions and practices that have led to so much professional burnout. In five thorough parts, it offers ways to discuss burnout in our work environments, studies burnout’s nature and causes, and provides preventative intervention and mitigation strategies: Reframing Burnout Conditions that Promote Burnout Lived Experiences Individual Responses to Burnout Organizational Responses to Burnout Chapters explore the relationship of burnout in academic libraries and illness, intersectionality, workload, managerial approaches, and more, while offering real-life stories and ways for both individuals and organizations to address the symptoms and causes of burnout. The emotional, physical, and mental investment we require of librarianship—to go above and beyond to serve the ever-evolving needs of our patrons while perennially justifying our existence to library stakeholders—can come at the expense of our well-being. Academic Librarian Burnout addresses unsustainable work environments and preserves and celebrates the unique contributions of librarians.

El presente trabajo explora en qué medida el conjunto de los autores seleccionados articula una posición discursiva de mediación con respecto al nuevo régimen colonial norteamericano establecido a partir del año 1898, al tiempo que produce variantes diferentes y conflictivas con respecto a un discurso de identidad y representación en el cual se destaca la reconfiguración el espacio. El punto de partida es el cambio del paradigmas suscitado por el desplazamiento del poder colonial de España hacia Estados Unidos al final del siglo XIX. La modernidad, para la sociedad nuestra americana, asume una forma singular: implica nuevas demarcaciones de las mismas; es, además, expresión de una lucha por producir una localidad y, a la vez, situarse en el sistema planetario; es apertura y clausura de espacios. El análisis que se propone se sustenta en un acercamiento geopoético a escrituras nacionales de comienzos del siglo XX en Puerto Rico, con el que se busca establecer las interpretaciones (la mediación) de los letrados frente a los desplazamientos, las ubicaciones y la homogenización de la cartografía puertorriqueña, así como de sus habitantes, bajo la ocupación norteamericana.Nashieli Marcano es bibliotecaria de humanidades y ciencias sociales en Kennesaw State University. Ha publicado diversos artículos sobre literatura latinoamericana, estudios poscoloniales, eco-literatura, estudios textuales, la fluidez informativa, y asuntos bibliotecólogicos.~This text explores the extent to which this group of selected authors articulates a discourse of mediation in relation to the new North American colonial regime established in 1898, while at the same time it produces different and conflicting variations of a discourse on identity and representation which has the reconfiguration of territory at its forefront. Its starting point is the paradigm shift caused by the relocation of colonial power from Spain to the United States at the end of the 19th century. Modernity, in our American society, adopts a unique shape: it establishes new demarcations; additionally it is an expression of the struggle to produce locality and, at the same time, its place within the planetary system; it is the opening and closing of spaces. The proposed analysis is based on a geopoetic approach to national writings of the beginning of the 20th century in Puerto Rico that seeks to establish the interpretations (the mediation) of advocates in the face of migrations, settlements and the homogenization of Puerto Rican cartography, as well as its inhabitants, under North American occupation.Nashieli Marcano is a humanities and social sciences librarian at Kennesaw State University. She has published several articles on Latin American literature, postcolonial studies, eco-literature, text studies, the flow of information, and librarianship topics.
