Library Ambassadors

ETSU Library Ambassador Program

ETSU’s Library Ambassador Program is a two-year program, which entails hiring APS students each fall and offering them two semesters of information literacy training with a specific focus on learning the databases of their majors. After training has been completed, ambassadors are deployed in various academic buildings across campus and in the CFAA to help students with library research and to connect students requiring in-depth help to librarians.
