The stories collected here demonstrate Rutgers University Libraries’ commitment to supporting the mission of Rutgers University and to building a strong foundation for academic success and research. 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.

    RUTGERS UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES 37 THE LIBRARIAN AS SOCIAL ARCHITECT: Creating a Community for Learning and Research at the Dana Library at Rutgers-Newark BY LYNNS. MULLINS Ms. Mullins is Director of the John Cotton Dana Library Academic library facilities planning in the current climate of rapid technological change and severe economic constraint is a difficult process that generally begins with and builds on a needs assessment and prioritization of concerns. The process requires spatial thinking about adjacencies and proximities and administrative and functional efficien- cies, and is based on a series of projections and estimations of growth and change in resources and information services. The difficulty of these considerations notwithstanding, the most critical aspect of the planning challenge is, however, an underlying conceptual one—the understand- ing and anticipation of the programmatic and related user needs of the campus and the broader community and the way that the library is able to respond to these needs and shape its programs accordingly. In effect, the library uses the medium of architecture to express the nature of its relationships with its constituencies. When viewed from this perspec- tive, the challenge presents the opportunity to create an environment for learning and research that reflects the library's values and beliefs and that gives a clearer focus to its educational role. The challenge is energizing and enabling, and librarians who are engaged in the process have the opportunity to become, in a sense, social architects who can translate their vision of what they believe the library is or can be into a new social reality.
