Librarian's portfolio

A portfolio is a way of recording, accumulating, evaluating and self-assessing one’s own achievements over a certain period of time. This method allows you to bring together and systematize your developments, supplement them as necessary and issue them on demand. A portfolio allows you to most fully and effectively present your work experience.

Portfolio preparation tasks:

– master self-presentation skills,

– learn to evaluate the results of your work, select the most significant or those containing new elements,

– document the work performed, preparing it in a high-quality and professional manner.

What materials (all or the best) and in what order will be collected in the portfolio are decided by the librarian himself. You can present your work most vividly and fully using the following materials:

- Documentation.

– Photo (can be from your passport)

– A resume prepared by the librarian himself, with an analysis of his professional experience.

– Materials about exhibition work(photo materials, layout, description of the exhibition, bibliography).

– Scenarios for the best events, developed independently (The material must define the target and readership, determine the form of the event and comply with it, compile a bibliographic list of sources used, prepare photographic materials).

– Feedback from methodologists and colleagues about open events.

– Samples of created bibliographic aids and other library products, for example, a booklet.

– Texts of speeches at events within the framework of the professional development system.

– Copies of publications in the media (written independently or dedicated to the employee (library)), – Projects, programs, competitive works.

– Materials indicating a high appreciation of the librarian’s work (reviews from users and partners, copies of diplomas, thanks and certificates, etc.)

– Video recordings and prepared electronic documents(presentations, developments, etc.) as a separate application (if available)

The most convenient way to organize your portfolio is in the form of a file folder, placing each material in a separate file. The work will be facilitated by a list of included materials and dating of portfolio elements. If it is possible to have a computer version, it is best to have both that and a printed version.

You can include a section like « General information about the librarian" and update it regularly:

– Last name, first name, patronymic, date of birth.

– Education (name educational institution, graduation date, specialty obtained), certificates of advanced training and additional education.

– Information about library experience and certification (indicating dates).

– Copies of documents confirming the level of qualifications and public recognition (diplomas, diplomas, letters of gratitude, certificates, certificates).

When preparing for certification, do not forget about your characteristics, for example, librarian, librarian of the acquisition and processing department, methodologist.

A resume prepared by the librarian himself will help him present his professional development over a certain period. It can reflect:

– Mastering new techniques and working methods,

– Mastering new equipment and new computer programs, - Development of programs, teaching materials, scripts,

– Conducting open events for specialists,

– Visits to other libraries to learn from experience,

– Participation in events within the framework of the professional development system,

- Participation in project work,

– Participation in competitions,

– Preparation of publications for the media and professional publications,

– Training in advanced training courses,

– Self-education (topics, materials, results).

After analyzing all portfolios submitted during certification recent years, we can highlight the advantages and disadvantages common to many librarians.

The advantages of the materials were:

– Presentation of materials that give an idea of the various types and forms of work - exhibitions, promotions, public events different forms(reviews, evenings, library lessons, game forms etc.),

– Availability of illustrative material (photographs or photo collages),

– Introducing new and unconventional forms

The disadvantages were:

– Errors in compiling bibliographic descriptions,

– Inconsistency of scripts with the stated form,

– Minimal amount material,

– Non-participation in public library events,

– Lack of information representing the work of the library and the specific librarian in individual materials.

The term “portfolio” came to us from pedagogy, politics, business, journalism, for example: ministerial portfolio, investment portfolio, editorial portfolio.

A portfolio is a way of recording, accumulating, assessing and self-assessing individual achievements over a period of time.

It refers to “authentic”, that is, true, closest to real methods of assessment. Its main meaning is to show everything that a specialist is capable of. This method allows you to independently analyze your achievements in order to draw conclusions and move forward. Thus, the portfolio, as an accumulator of achievements, reflects the dynamics of our professional development and serves as a form of discussion and self-assessment of work results.

Allows you to independently establish connections between previous and new knowledge, skills, and developments.

Tasks:

Analyze and summarize your work;

Link together individual aspects of your activities;

Reflect the dynamics of professional development;

professional activity

Portfolio report(for others) Show success and prove the progress of research, professional and creative activities

TYPES OF PORTFOLIO

When developing a portfolio structure, it is advisable to focus on three main types:

The document portfolio includes certified (documented) achievements of the librarian:

Diplomas (federal, municipal, district, school levels);

Certificates;

Evidence;

Certificates;

Help;

Certificates

It can contain copies specified documents. It must be preceded by a list of them (as they accumulate over a number of years).

A portfolio of works is a collection of materials reflecting the main directions and types of activity, a description of the main forms of creative activity. Performed by a group of various creative, design, research work librarian into a single array of documents. This may include:

Competition works;

Library development projects;

Texts (thesis) of speeches at seminars, methodological associations (or their audio and video recordings);

Scenarios of various mass events;

Electronic documents – various presentations, developments to help conduct library lessons, reviews, exhibitions;

Video recordings, photo albums of various events;

Printed works.

The portfolio of works is preceded by a list of materials presented in it. The works themselves are attached on paper or electronic media, including videos, photographs, publications, etc. It gives a qualitative assessment of the librarian’s professional activity according to the following parameters: completeness, diversity, originality, persuasiveness of materials, dynamics and creative activity of the employee, etc.

A review portfolio is a characteristic of a librarian’s attitude towards various types activities. It provides a written analysis of the librarian’s attitude to his activities and its results (texts of conclusions, reviews, testimonials, summaries, etc.). Includes ratings events by colleagues, methodologists of the Department of Education, school administration, methodological associations of subject teachers, etc. (letters of recommendation are added to the types of documents listed above). It is advisable to include a comprehensive self-analysis of activities and their results.

You can design either simple models portfolios (implementing one of the named types), or complex ones (including the described types as their sections).

For example:

A. Portfolios are simple: 3 options, i.e. either in pure form a portfolio of documents, or a portfolio of works, or a portfolio of reviews.

B. A portfolio consisting of two sections: a documents section and a works section, or a documents section and a reviews section, or a works section and a reviews section.

B. A portfolio consisting of three sections is complex: a documents section, a works section and a reviews section.

TYPES OF PORTFOLIO

There are several types of portfolio. We will look at two: personal and thematic.

Personal portfolio can be called professional portrait school librarian. The ideal version of a personal portfolio is a comprehensive “B”, i.e. including all types. In addition, it is advisable to include a so-called portrait, which is best placed at the very beginning.

The portrait tells about the personality of the librarian. It is proposed to do it in the form of a resume. The emphasis in the resume should be on the librarian’s existing experience: in self-education, in using modern information technologies in his practice, in design activities.

In addition to the above, you can include your reflections in the form of an essay in your personal portfolio. For example, immediately after the “portrait” - reflections on the topic “The profession of a librarian” or “The mission of the library in modern society" And before the library development program or before the competitive work - an explanation of why you chose this particular direction or topic. Such essays demonstrate the professionalism of the librarian, his attitude to work and the ability to analyze it, draw conclusions, and see perspectives.

In your personal portfolio you can place the results of professional testing and a self-assessment sheet of professional skills.

It makes sense to create a thematic portfolio if you are constantly and purposefully engaged in a particular topic. For example, as already mentioned, school librarians often work as subject teachers - they teach local history, MHC, aesthetics, the basics of library and information literacy, etc. Using a thematic portfolio makes it possible to group available materials and correctly place emphasis in order to further analyze your work and outline her prospects and demonstrate her professional level.

Thematic portfolio may include:

Plan (structure, diagram) of classes or topic development;

An explanatory note containing brief information about the author, form of presentation of the material, etc.;

Justification of the topic (subject course), your vision of this topic, what results you expect;

Course program (plans, technological maps or developing lessons, library activities);

Children’s work (questionnaires, tests, feedback on a specific lesson, feedback on literary work, drawings);

Self-analysis of the work performed;

Factual material on the topic (bibliography, copies of articles, diagrams, etc.);

Feedback from colleagues and teachers on the classes they attended;

Summing up, defining prospects.

METHODOLOGY FOR FORMING A PORTFOLIO

Most librarians who work more than three years, there are dozens of folders with thematic collections, developments for events and exhibitions, various projects, and research. There are folders with diplomas, diplomas, certificates, notebooks or folders with reviews of events and many other materials. These are the components of your portfolio - you just need to select the main thing and bring everything into the system. But before you start building your portfolio, answer the following questions.

– Why do I want to create a portfolio?

Depending on the answer, determine the type and type of your portfolio of achievements - simple or complex, personal or thematic.

– What will I include in my portfolio?

It is recommended to create a professional portfolio for the last 3-5 years, but some materials, such as certificates or diplomas from regional and federal level, can be included in 10–15 years. Only you can decide which developments to select for the portfolio of works and which reviews and reviews for the portfolio of reviews - the best or all that exist. This is your portfolio of achievements, and its contents are determined only by you. Remember one thing - you cannot embrace the immensity.

How will the portfolio be organized?

Firstly, what will it be - a file folder with printed materials or electronic version? Or both? After all, each option has its pros and cons.

Secondly, how the materials will be arranged. In forward chronology - to show progress and professional growth, or in reverse - to demonstrate latest results? Or you will distribute the materials by type: in the part for documents - diplomas, certificates, certificates, certificates, certificates; in the part for works - projects, programs, competition works, publications, speeches, scripts, reviews, reviews, etc.; or by level: school, district, municipal, regional, federal.

Depending on this, a list of portfolio materials is drawn up, which must be compiled and placed at the very beginning of both the printed and electronic versions. This list can be presented in the form of a list, but the best option is tables (see “portfolio design”).

Where will the portfolio be stored and who will have public access to it?

There are several options - in the library, at the administration, in the methodological office. Perhaps you will make two options: one - more complete, expanded - for the library, the other - most importantly - for the administration. If storage is expected in the library and you provide access, you can collect originals in a portfolio of documents; if your portfolio of achievements will be stored elsewhere, it is better to make copies. In any case, having created a portfolio, present your work to the school administration and the educational and methodological department of the education department. Most the best option presentations – defense or presentation of a portfolio in front of a team or methodological association of librarians from a district or city.

ORGANIZATION AND DESIGN OF A PORTFOLIO

Currently, there are no uniform standards and requirements for the organization and design of a library portfolio. Perhaps you yourself will find or develop the best option for placing your materials in your portfolio of achievements. The main thing is that it is logically constructed.

You can design your portfolio as a file folder with section headings.

Place each work, document, collection of materials in a separate file.

It is advisable to date each element of the portfolio so that dynamics can be traced.

In the printed version of the list, links to documents or their copies indicating the application number are required.

In the electronic version, for ease of navigation, it is advisable to provide hyperlinks to documents and other materials from the portfolio presentation and lists.

The competition of the journal "Bulletin of Educational and Children's Literature" "Master of the Book - 2006" pushed some librarians to develop their own professional portfolios. The following presents the experience of creating a portfolio of the head of the library of gymnasium No. 147 of the city of Omsk, Irina Innokentievna Platonova. A clearly structured structure, examples of documents and works will help you practical work over your own portfolio.
