Bridging Futures: Linking Library Collections and Services to Faculty Online

This is a webinar of the Academic Librarian's of Indiana's Information Literacy Committee.


Presenters:

  • Melissa Gentry; Map Collections Supervisor at Bracken Library, Ball State University
  • Karen Harag; Health Sciences and Human Services Librarian, St. Mary's College

Description:

As we all know, some of the only constants in life are change and the passage of time. Academic librarians are also constantly asked to improve utilization of library services. Fostering communication and collaboration between faculty, students, and academic librarians to achieve shared success is an ongoing challenge. Our classroom instruction can often have a secret audience, the teaching faculty. By demonstrating expertise in subject matter and research techniques librarians can increase the chances of teaching faculty reaching out for support. With a panel of librarians from various disciplines, this talk will highlight several strategies that can be used to engage with students and faculty, supporting their work both inside and outside of the classroom.
