Information for Faculty & Staff

GTC's student initiatives study found that students who access the Libraries' resources are 7.84% more likely to persist and succeed!

Students that are new to GTC, taking all online classes, identify as minority races and ethnicities, or have lower persistence prediction scores are even more likely to succeed with help from GTC Libraries!

Students who receive instruction from GTC Libraries have 10% higher assignment grades!

Documentation and consultation regarding GTC Libraries' collections, instruction, and other services that support academic program students and faculty are provided upon request for APR and various accreditation purposes. Due to the time required to select, acquire, and process new materials and to identify and discard outdated resources, faculty are advised to take a continuous proactive approach to ensure collection development meets academic and accreditation standards. To help your program's accreditation process be successful, librarians should be informed about accreditation report and visit assistance as far in advance as possible. 

For assistance with accreditation information, documentation, and collection development please contact Jan Daniel at (864) 250-8320.

For APR Library Conversations and rubric reviews please contact Tara Weekes at (864) 236-6500.

GTC Libraries can also help you with the State Board for Technical and Comprehensive Education's new program approval process. Please contact Jan Daniel at (864) 250-8320 for more information.
