Marcum, Brad
Journal of Library & Information Services In Distance Learning, v10 n3-4 p332-339 2016
This article examines the update and revision of the current Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) Distance Learning Standards that has been proposed and submitted to the ACRL Standards Committee. An in-depth analysis of the update is included, along with some comparisons between the old and new. Practical advice detailing initiatives and strategies implemented by a mid-sized regional university to meet the new standards is offered in conjunction with a forecast of the future of distance learning library services and impact the new changes will have for academic libraries.
