Pay it Forward

Pay it Forward is a unique guide in which two partners in a mentoring relationship describe the benefits to each partner and to the profession in forming a mentoring partnership. Rather than describe the relationship from only one point of view, this book discusses aspects of the mentoring relationship from the points of view of both individuals. The fourth in the ACRL Active Guides series, it also provides helpful tips, a leadership focus tool, and insight that will encourage new information professionals to seek out mentoring partners and to compel more seasoned information professionals to heed their professional calling and engage with new information professionals in a mentoring relationship! ACRL Active Guides address professional and workplace issues. Others in the Active Guide series include: Life-Work Balance, Influencing without Authority, and Conversations that Work: Conducting Performance Assessments. This book is suitable for all libraries and for personal use by librarians.
