The Library's own Christopher Proctor, Coordinator of Access Services and Campus Accreditation Project Manager was identified as a Faculty Innovator for his work overhauling the Library's Federal Work-Study Program (FWSP). Here's a bit from the article that you can read in full here:

“After evaluating the library’s past use of FWSP, I believed it could be strengthened to provide students with greater opportunities to develop and hone skills needed to be productive citizens and employees,” said Proctor. “To make this happen, I used my experience working with the regional accreditation process, which emphasizes the role of assessment and continuous improvement within university operations, to create a co-curricular assessment model incorporating programmatic level goals, learning outcomes, and assessment tools encompassing both direct and indirect evidence of student learning.”

Proctor started by mapping student workers’ responsibilities and duties to the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Career Readiness Competencies to better understand how to foster career readiness. A new training program was then constructed that places a heavy emphasis on active, hands-on learning.

From the website, "Latino Literature: Poetry, Drama, and Fiction includes more than 100,000 pages of poetry, short fiction, novels, and more than 450 plays. Nearly all of the content is in copyright, and most of the other items are long out of print or have never before been published. Besides serving as a rich resource for literature scholars, the collection also supports the study of American history, ethnic diversity, immigrations issues, and political history."
