Libraries and Student Success (brianna curran)


 Libraries have always played a huge role for student success. They provide a multitude of resources for students, free internet and technology access, quiet places to study, tutoring, and more. Libraries contribute to student success in terms of helping students progress in their knowledge and persistence as university students. Lisa Massengale, Pattie Piotrowski,  and Devin Savage published a study that Identifies and Articulates Library Connections to Student Success. Their findings report “the library fills a unique role for students and provides a trusted network of people, spaces, and resources that help set the stage for students to succeed in terms of persistence and providing a sense of community. The role of the libraries may be that of facilitators of a scholarly community. qualitative research revealed four themes from the students in terms of how libraries help them succeed: space, people, place, and resources and service”.
