Liaison Librarian, Danielle Loftus


 Liaison Librarian, Danielle Loftus

Each department or program on campus has a designated liaison librarian who serves as the first point of contact for any library-related questions or services. Liaisons are your go-to librarians, connecting you to library services and collections. They are subject specialists who provide support for faculty and student research, instruction, and scholarly communication, who build rich library collections or can refer you to other library experts. I am the Fine Arts liaison and work with Art, Theater and Music, and these are some my engagement activities:

•    Instruction, consultation, collection building
•    Scholarly communication
•    Digital scholarship and tools
•    Outreach to community
•    Exhibits and event planning


Be sure to contact your library liaison if you need research help or would like to purchase items in your area of research for the library collection. To connect with the liaison librarian in your area contact the reference desk ask@usd.libanswers.com or Circulation 605-677-5373
