Breaking the Bubble Academic Libraries and Community-Based Programming
Why • Philosophical theories: Golden Rule, agape (Greek, Judeo-Christian, or contemporary) • Opportunity to libraries to consider their value, their roles in changing environment • Opportunity to share our resources • Opportunity to have a greater impact on the surrounding community
Our story • Good neighbor • Define ways to share campus
Who benefits • Faculty • Students • Alumni • Board of Trustees • Campus partners • The community • YOU
Why library? • It’s familiar, people know what it is • We connect people to resources they need • We can be a more neutral party on campuses to facilitate this (no judgment) • We should already be working with variety of campus partners
