Libraries and Student Affairs Collaborations (ALA Annual 2017)

The ULS Campus Administration and Leadership Discussion Group hopes you will join us for a rousing conversation about libraries and student affairs collaborations at ALA Annual. Academic libraries often report to Academic Affairs, but have much in common with Student Affairs. How can academic libraries working collaboratively with Student Affairs units to ensure student success?

Time: 1 – 2:30pm
Location: Palmer House Hilton, Honore Ballroom
