Demonstrating The Library’s Value To Campus Stakeholders At A Private University: Impactful Practices for All Budgets and Staffing

As academic libraries face reduced budgets and limited staffing, demonstrating value has never been more critical. This session offers practical strategies for library administrators to engage key stakeholders, administration, faculty, and students, by aligning library services and resources with institutional priorities.

Learn how to communicate impact through budgeting and usage data, strengthen faculty partnerships through collections and instructional support, and reimagine the library as a dynamic student-centered space. Presenters will share actionable no-budget, low-budget, and medium-budget ideas tailored to each group, helping libraries focus resources on high-impact practices that sustain visibility, relevance, and support across campus. This webinar is part of NC LIVE's Demonstrating Your Library's Value Learning Series happening throughout the month of September.
