Criteria for Academic Ranks of Library Faculty
The criteria for appointment, promotion, and tenure are designed to reflect the national norms in academic librarianship and to provide guidance for KU Libraries faculty members to achieve excellence in their profession. Meeting these requirements does not guarantee a particular outcome, but does guarantee serious consideration in appointment, promotion, and tenure decisions.
