Students as Partners
At the heart of the library’s vision ‘The Library Towards 2025’ is our ambition to be a library that is connected, that goes beyond providing just a service and a building and to work in partnership with all our Lancaster University communities, which includes providing students with opportunities to work with the library and have a central role in its development. We have developed a ‘students as partners approach’, employing undergraduate and postgraduate students to:
- Ensure the student voice is embedded in all the Library and Learning Development does;
- Co-create services, activities and spaces;
- Increase graduate employability and academic performance; and
- Provide paid employment for students on campus.
There are a number of schemes available, which are advertised through the Employment Recruitment Service (ERS) and other schemes at various times of the year, which include:
- Academic peer mentoring schemes
- Library Student Ambassadors
- Library School Engagement Ambassadors
