- An Exploration of Students' Recollections after an Asynchronous, On-Site Academic Library Tour Adrienne Warner Recall (Psychology) Academic Libraries Library Services Asynchronous Communication Library Instruction Learning Experience College Freshmen First Year Seminars Library Facilities Observation Sensory Experience Organizational Culture Guidelines Student Attitudes Once an integral component to library instruction programs, tours of academic library spaces are less common despite students' continued need for study spaces with various qualities. This study asks, "What do students remember after taking an asynchronous, on-site academic library tour?" Qualitative analysis finds that, while students value library study spaces, they also report predominantly positive feelings about the library and the tour itself. This research suggests that technical affordances can mitigate some historical drawbacks of tours while offering students a valuable library instruction experience.
