-­‐
Dr.
Erin
L.
Albert,
author,
pharmacist,
lawyer,
and
associate
professor
of
pharmacy
practice
at
Butler
University
has
written
a
new
book
to
address
the
number
one
question
she
receives
from
students
post-­‐graduation
from
pharmacy
school.
The
New
Pharmacist:
46
Doses
of
Advice
helps
pharmacists
newly
licensed
up
to
10
years
into
practice
explore
career
paths
to
broaden
their
professional
horizons.
“I
kept
noticing
this
pattern,
where
students
18-­‐24
months
after
graduation
from
pharmacy
school
would
send
me
a
Facebook
message
or
email
asking
me
about
how
to
evolve
their
careers,”
according
to
Albert.
“They
would
often
ask,
“Is
this
all
there
is?”
Obviously,
the
easy
answer
is
“no,”
but
the
harder
answers
are
included
in
this
book,
perfect
for
the
next
group
of
pharmacists
graduating
this
spring.”
The
easily
digestible
guide
includes
the
following
issues
as
some
addressed
by
the
book
for
newly
practicing
pharmacists:
• Professionalism
• Networking
• Balancing
personal
and
professional
obligations
• Furthering
a
pharmacist’s
education
–
grad
school,
business
school,
and
law
school
• Career
development
in
pharmacy
As
a
companion
to
the
release
of
the
new
book,
a
group
for
New
Pharmacists
has
been
started
online
at
linkedin.com,
and
the
official
hashtag
for
this
project
is:
#NewPharmacist.
Albert
states,
“I
want
to
not
only
possibly
prevent
other
pharmacists
from
making
the
same
mistakes
I
made
early
on
in
my
career,
but
I
want
to
create
a
community
of
early-­‐stage
pharmacist
professionals
to
network
and
collaborate
and
share
ideas
with
each
other.”
