Federal Librarian Competencies, 2008.

The Federal Library and Information Center Committee (FLICC) developed the Federal Librarian Competencies to define the knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) needed to perform successfully as a federal librarian. Librarians can use the competencies to identify their proficiency within a group of shared competencies and seven broad functional domains. Managers can use the competencies to develop job descriptions, recruit and train employees, create performance standards, develop succession plans, and align with agency’s mission and strategic goals.
