In a recent effort to re-establish arelationship between the Engineering department and University Library, the library adopted auser centered approach to build connections and establish relationships. Contrary to an “if webuild it, they will come” approach, this strategy prioritized a series of interviews and focusgroups with students, staff, and faculty within the division. This listening first approach hashelped us prioritize library resources in response to demonstrated curricula, research, andscholarship needs, many of which have changed over the past three years. This case studyexamines student focus groups and interviews. Major takeaways include new knowledge ofstudent research practices, detailed insights from minoritized

There is a common course for all first years that includes a libraryworkshop; however, that program was not required for all sections when this cohort werefreshmen, so attendance likely varies from student to student. Those who did attend would havereceived an introduction to commonly used research databases in engineering and would havepracticed evaluating and citing sources as part of assignments for that course.
