Abstract

With student attrition rates reaching ever-increasing rates on campuses in the United States the inability of higher education institutions to retain their students is a significant issue. An Action Plan that offers librarians a useful entry point to contribute to the academic mission of colleges and universities is outlined. This paper details how to start inter-departmental partnerships and communicate a vision of library goals as effective strategies to prevent attrition.
