An Exploration of Students' Recollections after an Asynchronous, On-Site Academic Library Tour
portal: Libraries and the Academy, v25 n3 p571-593 2025
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.
