Making the Case Johnson University Library

Mission Statement It is our mission to serve our stakeholders, to provide access to the information and resources that faculty, community, and students need in the pursuit of research and knowledge.

Our Stakeholders *Students *Faculty *Board of Regents *University Administration *Community schools (borrowers with limited access)

A Graphical Tour of the Library: Graphical Tour of Our Library

Why Do We Need the Library? A physical presence is necessary because: *There is restricted access to many pages. (for example: Harvard does not have full text services online.) *Help, Feedback, timely responses are necessary to the materials. *The materials are available in many languages within the library.

Circulation continues to increase yearly.

*Most textbooks are not online full text. *Limited access to other reading materials (novels, articles, magazines, theses,)... *Handicapped (visually, physically disabled...) accessibility requires staff to offer their expertise and help for those using online services or materials. *15% of our population requires ADA supported services.

*The library staff provides help in finding valid, non-duplicated sources of information online,assisting those who are in need of proven resources. *The library staff has knowledge of search engines that offer wider choices of content, and assist in discovering appropriate, useable material for research.

Staff Member Assisting Student in Online Research

*Students require the full use of the university library, which is part of their tuition. *Faculty requires the full use of the university library for research and in meeting the educational needs of their students.

The library is a special place: *private collections *access internet with assistance *physical view of materials to compliment the electronic materials *up-to-date articles for complete texts (newspapers, too) *free access to periodicals/newspapers, etc. *social/study center *help with reference/research - experienced staff

Librarian Leading a Class in Internet Research Monthly seminars include using periodicals, assistive technology, and research papers.

Our Staff *1/3 of our staff has been redirected to new duties..… *The new duties include: experienced staff to help with refined searches. *We have 30 full-time staff..… *10 now assist with the internet/computer. *With specialized staff, search time for specific items has decreased by 50% while direct hits have increased 35%.
