Embedded Librarian Program Insights (2012)

This publication reports on the insights gained from an embedded librarian program at MacKay Library, Union County College (Cranford, NJ) using the Angel Course Management System (CMS). The program began in order to reach out to students in online classes, to market library resources and to offer assistance. Students were surveyed at the end of the semester to assess the value of the program and to suggest future revisions. Course assignments were found to play a major role in whether students reach out to the embedded librarian.
