Abstract: The very concept of tenure is currently under fire across the nation as several states have proposed or passed legislation that severely weakens or eliminates tenure. Beyond tenure, faculty rights, including shared governance and academic freedom, are also under attack. Whether librarians should have faculty status, rank, or tenure has been controversial for decades, further complicated by these conditions in higher education. The topic is the focus of Academic Librarian Faculty Status , #47 in the CLIPP series, a publishing program under the auspices of the ACRL College Libraries Section that provides college and small university libraries with analysis and examples of library practices and procedures (vii).
