The Campbell University Libraries Liaison Program seeks to build relationships between the libraries and academic disciplines both on and off campus. The program is designed to facilitate communication with academic departments and programs in order to enhance collection development, to encourage collaborative activities concerning information literacy, and to provide supportive services for research and teaching as well as library services overall.
Here is a list of just a few ways that a librarian liaison can help you.

formats
