The Georgia Library Association Carterette Series Webinars presents
The Impact of COVID-19 on the Use of Academic Library Resources
Wednesday, May 4, 2022
2pm Eastern (11am Pacific | 12pm Mountain | 1pm Central)
Description: During the spring of 2020, libraries around the world closed to reduce the spread of COVID-19. What impact did that have on the use of library resources in academic libraries? Three librarians representing large, medium, and small institutions, both public and private, explore metrics across areas such as interlibrary loan, website hits, discovery tool and database usage, and patron interactions. Using pre-pandemic usage as a baseline, we discover some common trends among our libraries. Join us as we share our experiences.
