This report presents findings from interviews and a scan of the current state of graduate student programming, and it identifies some of the opportunities and programmatic initiatives across ARL libraries primarily. To compile this report, interviews were conducted with leaders of services and spaces at ARL libraries focused on graduate students, and one non-ARL library (Oregon State University) with active graduate services. The report synthesizes trends, themes, and approaches, notes divergences among selected institutions and creates a snapshot of some of the new approaches and thinking related to delivering services and resources to graduate populations. Findings indicate that research libraries are developing new ways to assess and advance the graduate research process and enhance graduate education in partnership with their institutions, thereby addressing some of the challenges posed by the Commission. Recommendations and strategies for serving graduate students more effectively in the new climate are
provided.
