Abstract

One of the essential characteristics of successful librarians is the ability to use their experiences to build their skills. Donald Schön defined this concept as “reflectve practice” in his 1983 book The Reflective Practitioner. Here, Milewski and Williamson take on the role of reflective practitioners in examining their work in teaching citation management software. Their experience offers a model for librarians in all sorts of instructional positions to engage in reflective practice.—Editor
