| contents | Academic Libraries and Regional Economic Development. Fiscella, Joan B. Ringel, Joan D. Academic Libraries Access to Information Cooperative Programs Corporate Support Economic Development Higher Education Information Sources Library Services User Needs (Information) Academic libraries should follow the practice adopted by some academic institutions during recent periods of economic scarcity and develop economic and political ties with the business community, a partnership that could provide genuine benefits for members of the business community, elected officials, and academia. An example of such cooperation is the Business Partner Program begun in 1983 by Auraria Library in Denver, Colorado, which allows participating firms to receive company library cards as well as discounts on certain fee-based services in return for donating a specified amount of money to the library. Businesses such as those using the Auraria Library that seek information to enhance economic development opportunities generally rely on information from a combination of personal experience and insight, talking to colleagues or competitors, and publicly available knowledge. A key service that academic libraries can provide for businesses is access to such information, both in terms of physical access to research collections and intellectual access to people with expertise in the structure of information sources. Given the need for such access, it makes economic as well as philanthropic sense for companies to help fund academic centers that can provide these required resources and services. (KM) |
