Thanks to the publication of a large, rigorous new study, “The Impact of Academic Library Resources on Undergraduates’ Degree Completion,” we know that academic libraries can have a big impact on student outcomes. This bodes well for the thousands of students who use the Libraries each day, but it also means we have to make sure our core services meet their needs and expectations and that we are ready to support them throughout their academic careers. This year, we made significant improvements to our collections, instruction, and discovery, adding thousands of new resources and making them easier to find.
