The Library Advisory Committee (LAC) serves as an advisory group to the University Libraries with membership consisting of faculty/staff representatives from each of the Colleges/Cancer Center/Libraries as well student representatives from both the Undergraduate and Graduate Student Government Associations. The LAC provides feedback and generates ideas regarding the Libraries’ resources, services, and other projects relevant to the education, research, and clinical missions of the University. Chaired by Assistant Professor Beverly Collins (College of Nursing) during the 2014/2105 academic year, the LAC contributed useful feedback on such topics as the Libraries’ databases, which support research and curricular needs; the Libraries’ Research Services handout for faculty; the Reese Library extended hours pilot; the LibQUAL+® survey of library quality; scholarly communication initiatives; and various faculty librarian searches.
