document: Academic libraries and community : making the connection I explore the theme of academic libraries serving and reaching out to the broader community . I highlight interesting projects reported on in the literature -LRB- such as the Through Our Parents ' Eyes project -RRB- and report on others . I look at challenges to community partnerships and recommendations for making them succeed . Although I focus on links with the broader community , I also took at methods for increasing cooperation among various units on campus , so that the needs of campus community groups-such as distance education students or disabled students-are effectively addressed . Though academic libraries are my focus , we can learn a lot from the community building efforts of public libraries
