CHICAGO—Join Core for the webinar "Best of Core at 91´«Ã½ Annual Conference: Libraries, Campus Partners, and Student Success" on August 6, 2024, at 1 p.m. CT. The trend of bringing campus partners into academic library buildings started 20 plus years ago, with the intention of supporting and increasing student success. Some early models were rooted in decisions to repurpose space within academic libraries, and the groups that found themselves together did not necessarily have common goals or alignment. Today, there is a shift to campus partnerships that are driven by the partners and are strategic, sharing service values and goals. The changing roles of academic libraries, shifting from focusing on print collections to services has expanded partnership opportunities. Attendees will learn about and explore existing campus partnerships as well as learn about new partnerships just forming. Attendees will also learn about different approaches and methods for developing the partnerships and will gain perspective from different partners to better understand where there are common goals and overlap by hearing from four institutions: Grand Valley State University, an early adopter of campus partnerships; Seattle University, currently launching an effort to expand campus partners; Kenyon College, who started their planning process for these models by gauging student needs; and Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi, who partnered with their Office of Student Success to move reference services entirely online.

This webinar was previously presented in-person as a session at the 2023 91´«Ã½ Annual Conference and Exhibition. We are hosting this webinar, with the session adapted and presented live as a virtual event, to extend its reach.
