摘要

2023年，澳大利亚高等教育机构（ATP）关闭了其物理分馆之一。本研究调查了2022年至2024年ATP校区一年级学生的图书馆参与度、引文行为和学业表现，以评估这一关闭对学生成绩的影响。通过对核心学科期末评估的引文分析，以及期末成绩和借阅数据，该研究发现，学生主要依赖数字图书馆资源。引用模式与教师指导密切相关，学术表现与他们的图书馆使用和引用模式密切相关。最后，由于学生对数字图书馆资源的依赖，实体分馆的关闭对学生成绩没有明显的影响。

When the library closes: Assessing the academic impact on engagement, citation practices, and performance in first-year students

In 2023, an Australian Tertiary Education Provider (ATP) closed one of its physical branch libraries. This study examined the library engagement, citation behavior, and academic performance of first-year students across ATP campuses from 2022 to 2024, to evaluate the impact of this closure on student outcomes. Using citation analysis from the final assessment of a core multidisciplinary subject, alongside final grades and borrowing data, the study found that students primarily relied on digital library resources. Citation patterns closely aligned with faculty guidance, and academic performance trended with their library usage and citation patterns. Finally, due to students' reliance on digital library resources, there was no clear impact on student performance with the closure of the physical branch library.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Academic Librarianship, an international and refereed journal, publishes articles that focus on problems and issues germane to college and university libraries. JAL provides a forum for authors to present research findings and, where applicable, their practical applications and significance; analyze policies, practices, issues, and trends; speculate about the future of academic librarianship; present analytical bibliographic essays and philosophical treatises. JAL also brings to the attention of its readers information about hundreds of new and recently published books in library and information science, management, scholarly communication, and higher education. JAL, in addition, covers management and discipline-based software and information policy developments.
