I thought I might follow-up on my post from yesterday with some examples of effective library partnerships and how-to's.
For those of you able to attend the ACRL National Conference in April, you may want to review presentation materials from the "Meeting the Student Learning Imperative: Building Powerful Partnerships Between Academic Libraries and Student Services" session. For those of you unable to make it, the PowerPoint is available online.
Some other online goodies:
- C&RL News:
Integrating outreach and building partnerships: Expanding our role in the learning community - ALA:
Examples of Partnerships Focussed on Information Literacy - C&RL News: A new academic library model: Partnerships for learning and teaching
- ALA: Academic and Research Library Campaign--Getting Started: Case Histories (See Carlson Library)

Libraries are more than just collections of books and other materials. Libraries are dynamic forces in their communities with the power to improve lives. Modern marketing demands that librarians look beyond their traditional roles ("outside the book") to find new ways to connect with people and further their success.
