<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">I recently submitted my file and so all this is very fresh in my mind. At KU, the requirements fall into categories of professional performance, research, and
service. Professional performance parallels to teaching for the most part, and that is made clear
<a href="http://facultydevelopment.ku.edu/sites/facultydevelopment.ku.edu/files/docs/PromotionandTenure/CandidateDocuments/Candidate%20Statements%202019-2020.docx">
on the templates</a> we use – so that’s an advantage. Basically, though, I still tried to frame my professional performance statement as teaching of sorts, just with a different set of stakeholders. Instead of primarily students, its teaching peers, administrators,
and vendors. I also pointed to the ways my direct interactions with faculty and students (e.g. in e-resource troubleshooting) involves aspects of teaching.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">When I went up for tenure and promotion the standard format at my university (teaching, research, service) had no category for other library work. The University of Illinois system
has their P&T guidelines for librarians posted here: <a href="https://nam01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.library.illinois.edu%2Fstaff%2Fdossier-guidelines-for-library-faculty%2F&data=02%7C01%7Caroads%40ku.edu%7C5cd83aa44aa94844b28708d7482bc34d%7C3c176536afe643f5b96636feabbe3c1a%7C0%7C1%7C637057225117267656&sdata=ZLt8I6h7equ%2BTGYphDUXxPzwC1ejoe6MA6F64Wq%2FWt8%3D&reserved=0">https://www.library.illinois.edu/staff/dossier-guidelines-for-library-faculty/</a>.
I used these to adapt the template that I was expected to use, and then cited the U of I standards as a source to make it clear that I wasn't just making things up and to provide them with an impartial standard they could use to consider my library work. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

so I did have some teaching in my portfolio. (I'm now the Asset Management Librarian, and still have instruction expectations from my institution)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="xmsonormal"><span lang="EN-CA">This is a little off-topic but I am hoping to tap into your collective experience. After 23 years I find myself being required to go for promotion – long story, college became university, contract changed, etc. So much
advice I have seen around making the case for promotion centres around teaching and teaching evaluations. Working in collections development and electronic resources management presents some challenges in terms of making a case that a promotions committee
comprised primarily of non-librarians can relate to. Does anyone have suggestions for language to use in the statement of case, describing the work we do in collections and electronic resources management in a way that won’t leave physicists and historians
perplexed?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
