The ones in Morgantown are: The Downtown Library, Evansdale Library,Health Sciences Library, the Law Library, and the West Virginia Regional History Center. TheWVRHC is physically located inside the Downtown Library and occupies almost 10 floors ofspace.During an all staff meeting in 2022, the library administration asked departments to come upwith ideas to increase outreach to other departments within the Library, as well as to otherschools or units outside the Library.As the Engineering Librarian, I was contacted by my colleagues Jane LaBarbara

Unlike vocational and technicalacademic institutions, liberal arts institutions provide diverse and comprehensive training ideal forbroad and interdisciplinary programs. As of April 2021, there were 112 ABET accredited BSprograms in Bioengineering/Biomedical Engineering worldwide [1]. The number of liberal artsinstitutions starting and/or exploring science, technology, engineering, and technology (STEM)programs is increasing every year. In 2016 and driven by the positive job outlook for biomedicalengineers between the years 2012 and 2022 (about an increase by 27%) [2], our liberal

, positionopenings in physics, chemistry, and math are commonly the hardest to fill with qualifiedpersonnel [1]. This disparity has led to a large percentage of STEM teachers with no collegemajor or minor in their main subjects, or they have no complete certification. Among mathteachers, 40% fall into this description, while over 60% of physics, chemistry, and earth scienceteachers do so[2].This concern over STEM shortages is justified as STEM jobs are projected to grow by 13% from2012 - 2022 which is an increase of about 1 million jobs over a 10 year period. Only 5% ofUnited States workers are employed in STEM jobs, but these jobs drive 50% of the UnitedStates’ economic growth.

The National Science Board has recently called the transformation of the U.S.fossil fuel-based energy economy to a sustainable energy economy a critical grand challengefacing the country (NSB, 2009). Furthermore, the US Department of Energy has called forreplacing 30% of the nation’s fossil-based fuels by 2030 (U.S. DOE 2008). Additionally, theEnergy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA 2007) (Public Law, 2007) mandates theproduction of 36 billion gallons per year of biofuels by 2022, of which 21 billion must come Page 25.180.2from feedstock

demographics. Using data from a 2022 national survey ofengineering graduates (n=982), we examine the engineering intensity of participants’professional identities disaggregated by gender and race. Our findings reveal that role type,technical focus, and application of background education were salient themes across the entiresample, reflecting the prioritization of traditional and technically oriented work in engineeringculture [10]. For engineering educators, understanding the factors that influence engineeringidentity has implications for their ability to foster their students’ sense of belonging, encouragetheir retention in the field, and improve their access to a range of meaningful engineering careerpaths.Literature ReviewOur literature review
