How can libraries and librarians across the educational continuum
work together to support student transitions from high school to
college, utilizing free or low-cost resources? This book supplies
the answers. Informed Transitions: Libraries Supporting the High
School to College Transition identifies the ways in which libraries
and librarians can work together and create valuable resources that
help students transition successfully to college-despite the
challenges of increasing demand and diminishing resources. The book
is organized into three sections: background, expectations, and
skills; conversations and collaborations; and programs and
resources. Section 1 establishes a foundational understanding of
the libraries' role in supporting college transitions. Section 2
shares model conversations that move this work forward, stressing
its collaborative nature. The third section highlights some
well-established programs and resources that effectively support
high school to college transitions. Practical information is
provided throughout, pinpointing what high school students need to
know to smoothly transition to college, spotlighting the
expectations of college professors, and discussing
audience-specific methods of working with students at the high
school and college levels.
