Digital Access<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Dayton Memorial Library is the academic library for Regis University, a Catholic institution. This library primarily serves the students and professors at the University. There are about fifteen bibliographers that work in the library. Each has two to three subjects that they specialize in. The person I interviewed Amy Hezel works in this library. She is the bibliographer for the English department as well as serving as the Discovery and Systems Librarian. \u201cIn academic libraries outreach services might involve assigning LIS professionals to act as liaisons with various departments. These individuals confer with faculty about their needs, or they might be \u201cembedded,\u201d or physically located in specific departments where they work closely as partners with faculty members, supporting their research and teaching\u201d (Rubin & Rubin, 2020, p. 98). This was exciting for me to see because I would love to work with the history department of a university. The libraries website is easy to navigate. There are numerous databases, but they only serve the students and faculty. You must login to have access to the journals, books, and other materials in the library. One can visit the library and there is an \u201cAsk the Librarian\u201d help feature for online inquiries. I do not see any accommodations for the visually impaired or those for which English is their second language. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Space and Physical Access<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Dayton Memorial library is on the campus of Regis University in Denver. The library is in a large building that is somewhat church-like. However, this might be because I know the University is a Catholic one. The library is spacious with numerous places for students to study quietly. There are of course numerous shelves of books, but it is easy to navigate. There are a few different types of indoor spaces. There are meeting rooms, a multimedia laboratory, government publications room, and they also offer a student food pantry. I think the spaces feel welcoming to the students and staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Services and Intellectual Access\/People (Patrons and Staff)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I didn\u2019t notice any special services other than the student food cupboard and tutoring services available. I believe the library uses the Library of Congress system for organization. The library catalog is accessible however one must be a student or a faculty member. The interactions between staff and students consist mostly of students asking for help or being shown were certain books or materials are located. There is not much diversity here. Most of the students are white and so is the faculty. This may be due the demographics of Denver, the private nature of the university, and that it is a Catholic institution. The library is easy to access if you are in a wheelchair or have other mobility issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Collections<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The collections include many databases, books, and streaming media. The library just put in place a system called Lumen Plus which makes it easier to locate materials. It seems to be an extensive search engine that can access all the universities materials. The library has many resources typical of an academic library. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/epublications.regis.edu\/carousel_gallery\/2\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n References<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n [Photograph Regis University Library].
