The Heart of Librarianship: A Literature Review of Outreach in Academic Libraries

Presentation that provides a summary of the literature on library outreach and indicates how the literature review has impacted outreach developments at the UNT Libraries. Outreach has a positive impact on student success, but a clear definition of what outreach is looms beyond the literature.

It was presented at the Library History Seminar XIV: Libraries Without Borders event which was held virtually on June 10-12, 2021.
