摘要学术特藏图书馆员在使其馆藏可供广大读者阅读和使用方面取得了很大的进步。本文探讨了特殊馆藏部门的使用情况，以及图书馆员为增加对馆藏的访问和了解而采取的多种外展措施，包括创建电子查找工具，将材料数字化，与教师合作，增加对教学和参考资料的参与，以及使用展览，社交媒体，以及与社区合作伙伴的关系，以促进图书馆和学院或大学的使命和目标。本文以伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校特藏系为个案进行研究。
ABSTRACT Academic special collections librarians have made great strides in making their collections discoverable and accessible to a wide audience. This article examines use of special collections departments and the many kinds of outreach librarians undertake to increase access to and knowledge of their collections, including creating electronic finding aids, digitizing material, collaborating with faculty, increasing participation in instruction and reference, and using exhibits, social media, and relationships with community partners to further the mission and goals of the library and the college or university. The article uses the University of Illinois at Chicago Special Collections Department as a case study.
