Syracuse University Libraries is accepting undergraduate and graduate applications for its Student Library Advisory Board for the Spring 2025 semester. Applications from active students in good standing, regardless of year or discipline, are due by Tuesday, Dec. 17. Selected students who satisfactorily complete all advisory board assignments for the semester will receive a $250 stipend.
The Student Library Advisory Board is an opportunity for students to share their ideas, needs and feedback to improve the Libraries’ services, resources, spaces and programming. Members will participate in user experience activities during once-a-month Friday meetings and will serve as ambassadors for the Libraries among their peers. Members will also gain leadership and skill-building experience, including in areas of information literacy, communication, civic responsibility, research and creative thinking, while helping to improve the Libraries through fun and interactive engagement. Applicants can anticipate a commitment of approximately three hours per month. Current library student employees are ineligible to participate.
The Student Library Advisory Board is being supported, in part, through a collaboration with The SOURCE. Those with questions can contact Seyvion Scott at sscott17@syr.edu.
