PASCAL Member Conference

Academic libraries regularly provide information to support the accreditation, certification, and periodic review of degree programs. The library portion of the academic program review has traditionally focused on detailing the number of titles and volumes of books in the collection, the age of the collection, and the amount of money the library spends to support the degree program. Employing a "more instead of less" approach, our library uses both narrative and data about collections, services, and initiatives to share the library's story. This session will explore what prompted our change in focus and the variety of information we provide. We'll also discuss how effective this "oversharing" is in conveying the complex work that libraries do to support the university curriculum.
