Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explain the relationship alumni may have with their institution’s library and its effect on student success, which, in turn, produces more engaged alumni. Design/methodology/approach This paper provides a base interaction model that describes this relationship. Findings Libraries are well positioned to not only engage current students but to establish the foundation for these students to become engaged alumni. Originality/value This base relationship model may help with advocating for secure funds of libraries and/or a higher priority for fundraising.
