Abstract

In this column, Julie Elliott considers the role of RA services in the academic library. She looks at the history of the role of extracurricular reading at colleges and universities. Elliott examines current practices in academic libraries, and outlines the issues that have kept readers’ services from taking a prominent role in academic libraries. Her article concludes with a call for academic libraries to revitalize their approach to readers’ services.
