How are students supposed to know where to start when applying to college? Once they arrive, how do they continue navigating complex institutional systems and advocating for themselves?

For many students—especially first-generation students, English language learners, and adult learners—higher education can feel like an overwhelming maze of unfamiliar terminology, decentralized services, and bureaucratic roadblocks. Without clear guidance, students may struggle to access the support they need, impacting their ability to enroll, persist, and succeed in college.

Join us for a webinar exploring how libraries can play a pivotal role in supporting student success by fostering college literacy and college fluency, with Africa S. Hands (University of Buffalo), jean amaral (Borough of Manhattan Community College Library), and Melissa Blankstein (Ithaka S+R). This hands-on session will help participants identify key action steps to implement at their own institutions, ensuring they are better equipped to support students holistically. Register today.
