- First Principles: Designing Services for First-Generation Students Arch, Xan Gilman, Isaac Academic Support Services First Generation College Students Library Services Interdisciplinary Approach Barriers Academic Achievement Academic Libraries Educational Facilities Design Counselor Attitudes High School Students Academic Advising Correlation Student Needs Student Attitudes College Applicants For many first-generation college students, traditional academic culture and structures can create barriers to their engagement on campus and academic success. To ensure that academic libraries are not also presenting unnecessary challenges to these students, first-generation needs and expectations should be important considerations in library service and facility design initiatives. Drawing on a multidisciplinary literature review and a survey of high school counselors' experiences advising first-generation students, the current study identifies common needs and challenges of first-generation students and provides correlated recommendations for how libraries can best equip themselves to meet those needs.
