Library Liaison Program

Library liaisons act as a bridge between the library and academic departments. Each academic department is assigned a library liaison who works in partnership with the department to select library materials and develop services in support of learning, teaching, and research to further the overall academic mission.

More information can be found on the UW-Superior Intranet site.
