The library remains at the heart of the student experience. However, the way in which students are using their library services is changing. The rise of distance and blended learning has placed new demands on library service. They study in new ways, adopting a variety of media and they expect to be able to access information at the touch of a button.
So, how can technology help to meet these increasing expectations and ensure that libraries are ready to meet the demands of today’s student consumer? Here are three simple ways your LMS can help:
During a time of rapid technological advances, innovation is key to meeting and exceeding student expectations. Today’s learners invest heavily in their future so it’s not surprising that they demand the same investment in library facilities too.
In order to deliver a truly outstanding service, libraries need to listen closely to the student voice and adopt the tools that students are familiar with using outside of their studies. Only then will they be able to fully meet the needs of today’s tech savvy student consumer.
