Libraries and tutoring centers often support the same students—but rarely in the same space. This session shares how a partnership at Emporia State University brought these services together through high-impact events like the Long Night Against Procrastination and embedded finals support. By combining research help, tutoring, and engaging programming, this model increased student participation and strengthened academic support. Attendees will gain practical ideas for creating their own collaborative, student-centered initiatives.
Arts & Humanities Librarian, Saint Louis University
I recently joined SLU in 2026. Prior to that, I was a FYE Librarian at Emporia State University, where I also received my MLS. I was born and raised in KCMO, and an alum of SLU as well!
