Branch Campus Librarianship with Minimal Infrastructure: Rewards and Challenges
Knickman, Elena; Walton, Kerry
Community & Junior College Libraries, v20 n3-4 p63-73 2014
Delaware County Community College provides library services to its branch campus community members by stationing a librarian at a campus 5 to 20 hours each week, without any more library infrastructure than an Internet-enabled computer on the school network. Faculty and students have reacted favorably to the increased presence of librarians. Although it bears challenges, it also has considerable rewards and flexibility in terms of being able to respond to the needs of the constituents.
