Good news!  Students are coming back to campus as indicated by many key elements of annual quantitative report for FY 2022-23. They are using our spaces to study, work with a librarian or tutor, print or to login from our computer labs .The numbers are also showing a continued and robust use of online services and resources. 

The fall 2022 SSI survey (see pdf below) supports these numbers as the library and tutoring spaces received high satisfaction and importance ratings from students.  The library has been listed as a College strength since 2010. 

  • The library continues to outperform the national benchmark. 
  • As students progress to Term 3 students note an even higher importance and satisfaction for the library. We believe this is the result of our continual outreach to nurture program students through library instruction, our Personal Academic Librarian program and our liaison work with faculty.
  • Tutoring continues to increase in importance and satisfaction and now ranks among those with the smallest SSI gap.

Use of LASS Services and Persistence

 Persistence =  In higher education, persistence rates show a student's ability to continue on to the next consecutive term can be an indicator of students success and graduation. The chart represents the persistence rate of 10,552 student users and non-users of the LASS services included in the analysis. It does not include our in-person or phone Student Technology Help services nor does it include unit measurements like items checked out, logins to library databases, use of libguides, HESI Test prep sessions, etc.
