Student’s Library Advisory Board

Who is on the Board?

Students from all majors and statuses – from Freshman to Graduate and Transfer students - to best represent the needs of the entire campus community. The aim is to include students with a variety of interests (panhellenic, campus recreation, etc.) to ensure that the Library meets the needs of all students.

What Does the Board Do?

Gives students an active voice in Library planning and operations. The Board is a forum for information exchange between students and the UTC Library with a shared goal of supporting student success.

Board members meet 2-3 times in the Fall and Spring semesters to exchange ideas, share feedback, and propose changes to library operations. Board members also stay in contact via email between meetings.

Why Should I Get Involved?

Serving on the Board is a voluntary, unpaid position. As a Board member, you will directly benefit by advocating for the Library to serve your needs and to ensure that the best possible services, materials, and spaces are available for you and your peers.

Plus, serving as a Board member is a great addition to your professional resume and the experience will help prepare you for future professional committee and board meetings.

How Do I Get Involved?

Typically, a new Board is convened early in the Fall semester. However, requests for info are welcome at any time, as there may be an opportunity to participate in the Board or another student group at various times.
