Jeff Greer, contributor to the US News and World Report, writes “if you talk to a college admissions officer or a high school guidance counselor about things to do when you visit a college campus, one of the first things they say is to visit the libraries on campus. Bring a book or some schoolwork, sit down, and soak up the environment. Can you see yourself there for four years?”
Here are four key questions to ask:
- What is the staff like?
- How much does the library system and its librarians interact and work with the faculty?
- What’s the atmosphere like?
- Check the library system website and digital resources. Do they offer enough resources at any hour of the day?
