Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic is transforming organizational cultures across the workforce, with libraries of all kinds being no exception. This poster presentation will focus on the experience of a scholarly communication and discovery services librarian beginning a new job in the United States Federal Reserve System in May 2021, immediately after completing graduate school. The poster will be organized around answering key questions that participants in INCONECSS 2022 might have in mind with regard to onboarding new colleagues successfully, especially in libraries that have experienced major changes in day-to-day working life over the past two years. These key questions will include the following, in no particular order: What has worked well with remote onboarding as a new employee? Where is the in-person component of working life unmatched by remote work? How can a new employee ensure harmony between their own expectations/preferences and those of their colleagues and supervisor? How might the lack of daily spatial proximity to colleagues impact the informal knowledge sharing that orients a new employee to a library/office culture, including the explicit and implicit aspects of that culture? In that ways might new employees compensate for this deficit? In a remote working environment, how might a new employee go about building relationships with important “secondary contacts” in a library organization? (The people you need to know, but don’t necessarily need to see or interact with every day.)
