The Library Student Resource Group (LSRG) serves as a formal channel of communication between students and the Library Administration. The LSRG discusses matters related to all the University libraries—Crerar, D’Angelo Law, Eckhart, Harper, Regenstein, and SSA—including feedback about collections, access, services, and present and future needs of the student community. The LSRG also assists in making specific recommendations to improve the Library and considers proposals for future changes in services. Finally, members of the LSRG discuss how the Library can most effectively communicate its resources, services and plans with students, and conversely, how students can most effectively communicate their wishes, needs and concerns to the Library.
The student representation in the LSRG consists of: 3 students from the College, 4 graduate students (one from each of the Divisions—Biological Sciences, Physical Sciences, Social Sciences, and Humanities), and 5 students from the Professional Schools (Divinity, GSB, Harris, Law, Pritzker, SSA). The LSRG also includes several Library staff, including the Library Director.
The Council meets approximately 2 times per quarter, with the year’s dates selected at the first meeting. Students are appointed to the Council by Deans of Students, working with the Office of the Vice President and Dean of Students in the University, and serve a 2-year term.
