Description
Libraries have changed from being considered material warehouses to being holistic learning environments. The focus has moved from accommodating individual research and study to providing interactive, flexible spaces and programs for a wide variety of group and individual modes of learning and research. In association with these physical changes, academic libraries are increasingly hubs not only of information literacy related learning, but more broadly of university learning and of student engagement with their learning journey. The integration of learning skills into the library takes this concept of the academic library at the centre of university learning to a new point. Bringing together librarians and learning skills advisers within the library structure and service model breaks new ground in its integrated approach to holistic skills development and involvement with the student learning experience. This article describes this expansion at Monash University Library, within the context of the University's evolving learning landscape. Prior to 2007, language and learning support services, as they were then called, at the Australian campuses of Monash University were the responsibility of the University's Centre for the Advancement of Learning and Teaching (CALT).
