Academic Library Collection Benchmarking: What data is telling us about equity, funding and research support
Speakers
This on‑demand webinar features a roundtable of librarians from Old Dominion, Virginia Tech, University of Virginia and the University of Colorado Boulder hosted by Clarivate. During the session, we presented key findings from an exploration into the benchmark collections data of 171 U.S. academic libraries, published in our recent report entitled Benchmarking Database Access in U.S. Academic Libraries.
Librarian and Clarivate analyst Aimee Leverette-Green offered an in-depth look at how collections differ across Carnegie Classifications and IPEDS funding tiers and shared insights into the content academic librarians are relying on and prioritizing in their collections.
Helen Chung-Kesl, Clarivate moderator, led a roundtable conversation with the panel to discuss the findings and share ideas for libraries seeking to expand access to content within limited budgets. For academic librarians navigating shifting curricular needs and escalating demand for digital content, this webinar provides both context and practical pathways for closing gaps.
