Indiana University South Bend

Indiana University South Bend is a regional campus of the eight campus, 100,000-student Indiana University system. The campus' and Library's relationship to the University system has evolved as the campus has grown and developed into a regional university from a university extension center. The Franklin D. Schurz Library provides a variety of instruction and reference services as a result of long term commitment by administrators and library faculty to provide up-to-date, high quality services. The core of the instruction program is a required undergraduate credit-bearing information literacy course. Budgetary and staffing constraints are faced, as they are in many academic libraries.
