Springshare & ACRL Collaborate to Provide Springy Tools to Member Units

ARCL LogoThe Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) is the largest division within ALA representing almost 20% of the total ALA membership with more than 11,000 members, 17 sections, 21 discussion groups, 17 special interest groups, 8 active task forces, 44 chapters, and 51 committees. To say this division is active would be an understatement!

Another understatement? How excited we were to collaborate with the ACRL offices to provide LibGuides and LibAnswers to member units to create unit-specific resources in support of ACRL’s mission. Using LibGuides and LibAnswers, ACRL units will be able to effectively and efficiently collaborate while completing association-related work.

Mary Ellen K. Davis, ACRL Executive Director stated, “ACRL is grateful to Springshare for making this resource available to our members to facilitate their work for the association. We are very appreciative of Springshare’s generosity and ACRL members are already using the tools to further their unit’s work.”

Slaven Zivkovic, chief Springy, added: “Many ACRL members already use our tools at their own institutions, so this is truly a win-win collaboration! Springshare gets to support the ACRL and all the wonderful work the organization does, and its members benefit from using already familiar tools to improve ACRL workflows and outreach in the same beneficial ways they use Springshare tools within their own institutions.”

We can’t wait to see the amazing content that the ACRL offices will be creating!

As our chief Springy would say, onwards and upwards!
