Enhancing Library Services at Kirkwood Community College with LibGuides

Kirkwood Community College serves over 23,000 students across nine campuses in Iowa. To streamline library services, the college implemented LibGuides, improving access to Interlibrary Loan (ILL) resources. With a substantial print collection and dedicated librarians at multiple locations, Kirkwood emphasizes supporting its diverse student body, including those enrolled in distance education. By utilizing tools like ILLiad and LDAP Authentication, Kirkwood enables patrons to initiate ILL requests conveniently and efficiently, reinforcing the library's commitment to ‘round-the-clock service.
