Franklin D. Roosevelt criticized engineeringschools for not doing more to train engineering students in social and professional skills.56 Anumber of leading engineering schools including Carnegie, Cornell, MIT, Purdue, and Yale didrevise their programs to include more non-technical courses.In the late 1920s, SPEE began organizing summer schools in an effort to improve teaching andencourage curriculum development. The 1932 Summer School, which was held at Ohio StateUniversity and the Stevens Institute of Technology, focused on English instruction. One of thesessions was devoted to “Teaching Literature in Engineering Colleges.” The instructors includedH. S.

During this time, one additional research group was added.Program AssessmentWhether in clinical or research settings, the literature notes the difficulties librarians haveencountered when trying to evaluate the impact of embedded librarian services. Previous reviewsof clinical librarian services have discussed the challenge of identifying direct impacts,suggesting that forming casual links between information services and impacts on majoroutcomes such as improved patient care is “difficult if not impossible.”52 However, Brettle etal.’s systematic review of the effectiveness of clinical librarian services concludes that clinicallibrarians have created a satisfactory service model
