The survey revealed: (1) very few academic librarians in Ohio have full faculty status as defined in the ACRL Standards; (2) of the nine standards mandated by the ACRL only four are met by more than half of the institutions in Ohio; and (3) the degree to which academic librarians in Ohio have the rights and responsibilities of faculty status varies by cer- tain demographic characteristics of the respondents. cache/crl-13579.pdf txt/crl-13579.txt
