Several recent studies have shown that a large-scale turnover is likely to occur among community college instructors over the next several years, as veteran faculty retire in large numbers. As colleges begin to experience this mass retirement, researchers and administrators must consider the side effects of a faculty turnover, especially in relation to faculty recruitment, training, and the use of part-time instructors. The citations in this annotated bibliography explore the current issues of faculty retirement and recruitment, and identify some of the key challenges and opportunities that will accompany the predicted largescale turnover.
