Abstract
ABSTRACT Student engagement opportunities allow undergraduate students to pursue their interests, grow into engaged citizens, and connect their disciplinary knowledge in an applied context. Academic libraries are still investigating the ways they can support, enhance, and provide these opportunities. This exploratory, qualitative research project used semi-structured, in-depth interviews to learn more about undergraduate student engagement experiences and the student’s perception of the role of the library in these opportunities. The authors explore and amplify how students see the library and provide suggestions on how libraries can continue to contextualize their work in student engagement opportunities.
期刊介绍:
College & Undergraduate Libraries enables libraries serving primarily undergraduate students to enhance the range of services, resources, and facilities offered to their constituents while also contributing to staff professional development. Whether focusing on public services, technical services, management, or technology, the journal highlights the fact that undergraduate libraries must collaborate with agencies both on and off campus in order to survive and thrive. In addition to numerous columns on current topics, typical contents include research-based articles, case studies, reports of best practices, an occasional literature review or product review, and opinion pieces.
