In a previous survey we conducted of academic librarians, 73% of respondents indicated that they shared their space with at least one or two non-library programs or departments. As a follow-up to that report, released in 2015, this new report examines the current zeitgeist of programming within academic libraries, with a particular focus on this growing trend of programs, departments, or initiatives co-locating in the library. This report explores how these "new neighbors" shape, benefit—and sometimes hinder—the mission of the academic library.
