Collaboration is Key: Advancing the Academic Health Sciences Library's Mission Through Campus Partnerships Within Library Spaces

Abstract

Academic health sciences libraries are actively engaged with their health professions faculty and administrators to advance teaching, learning, and research. This chapter offers strategies for success when cultivating and working with partners, using the Health Sciences Libraries partnership model and resulting in a new suite of space-enabled services (e.g. Faculty Commons, Virtual & Augmented Reality Studio, 1:Button Studio, Visualization Lab, Wangensteen Historical Library, and Innovation Space). It also discusses impact and lessons learned.
