Abstract

“In a twenty-first-century academic library, its unique collections distinguish it from other libraries.” So reads the first line of Collaborating for Impact: Special Collections and Liaison Librarian Partnerships, which focuses on ways that special collections librarians and liaison librarians in academic libraries have worked together to benefit their libraries and campuses. The volume is edited by two librarians from the University of Rochester who themselves are special collections and liaison librarians.
