Look for literature reviews and notes on operations in LRTS 47-1, 47-2, 48-1, 51-1

Questions that arose in data checking:

1) Do we count as academic librarian authors, authors who conducted the research as academic librarians, but published it when not academic librarians?

2) Do we count retired academic librarians?

3) Reference Services Review’s structured abstracts raise the question, what kinds of paper types to include in data set? I would rule out papers designated as ‘viewpoint.’

4) In Journal of Academic Librarianship, do we include articles in “Perspectives on …?”
