building on campus and some are accessible 24 hours a day five daysa week during the academic year. Logic, as does practice, suggests that a campus library wouldbe one of the better places to house equipment intended to improve accessibility to 3D printingand provide students with an informal workspace to extend their learning beyond the classroom.With this in mind, the College of Engineering and Technology’s Department of TechnologySystems approached the main campus library in the spring of 2014 with the hope of forming apartnership to make 3D printing more accessible to the campus community to house a 3D printerin the library in order to make the technology more accessible to the campus community.

Out of the six performance indicators for theirmodel, libraries can have the greatest effect on both "institutional climate/culture" and"institutional receptivity". The climate/culture reflects how students are treated, opportunities forresearch and contributions to a chosen discipline, and especially whether students feel like theybelong. Library programming can be created to foster this sense of an "inclusive

An offer to teach a bibliographic instruction session was accepted by one ofthe faculty, but others had needs that would not be met by the librarian coming into their classes.Most had concerns about giving up lecture time. One wanted all of their graduate assistants toreceive training. Offering training sessions in the library presented other problems includingaccurately reporting to each faculty member which students attended and which did not. By theend of the meeting the seeds for a video project had been planted in the author’s mind

With this commitment in mind this research investigates ifengineering librarian members of ASEE have the knowledge, training, and support to incorporateinclusive teaching practices into their library instruction. This research examines the currentclimate for engineering librarians through an anonymous survey. The survey will collect data oninclusive teaching by engineering librarians. The study aims to answer whether librarians havethe knowledge, training, and support from their library, college, and institution to engage withinclusive teaching

with our library spaces.Conclusion We created the AET Library with science and engineering students in mind. As wecollect academic resources, more and more are in electronic format. Our focus will be ondelivering information about those resources and instruction on why, how and when to use themwith regards to a student or researcher's individual needs. Computers and other electronicdevices that break into the marketplaces will be our method of discovering rich scholarlyresources. We won't discount or forget past works in print, and we still want to make themavailable to discover and deliver on demand. The future is always impossible to predict, but wethink this model will serve us well

DSU’s provost also had akey role in communicating the importance of library resources and his support of includingfunding of library resources in program proposals when necessary. This was critically importantin dispelling the sense that departments shouldn’t include additional funding for library resourceseven when clearly justified. Although funding is tight at the institution, having this direction andsupport from the provost for building library collections is appreciated.The final mechanical engineering program proposal approved by the curriculum committee andacademic council is financially realistic, and as a 2012 ARL Issue Brief [7] stated
