Abstract This article discusses outreach initiatives that took place during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020–2021 at the Texas A&M University Libraries’ Cushing Memorial Library and Archives, which houses special collections, rare books, and the University Archives. The State of Texas and the Texas A&M main campus reopened earlier than most. The article reflects on how the Cushing Library responded to the circumstances created by the pandemic, including the development of online programs and a blog, while closed to the public. It also examines the combination of online and in-person programming after reopening in August 2020, including a large LGBTQIA+ collaborative exhibition. The article discusses the pressure of remaining highly productive and efficient during unprecedented times.
期刊介绍:
Public Services Quarterly covers a broad spectrum of public service issues in academic libraries, presenting practical strategies for implementing new initiatives and research-based insights into effective practices. The journal publishes research-based and theoretical articles as well as case studies that advance the understanding of public services, including reference and research assistance, information literacy instruction, access and delivery services, and other services to patrons. Articles may examine creative ways to use technology to assist students and faculty. Practice-based articles should be thoroughly grounded in the literature and should situate the work done in one library into the larger context of the situation.
