Abstract

A systematic review of trends in academic hiring was conducted using literature from the library and information science and broader disciplines over the past twenty-two years in the United States. The review aimed to identify growth in interest in hiring practices and discuss the need for more academic research on hiring practices. While searches initially produced 1,142 results on academic hiring in library environments, the researchers could only find 49 results that addressed hiring practices in higher education related to their specific parameters.
