Empowering Student Wellness: Our Approach at the Health Sciences Library
Varina Kosovich
Health sciences students experience mental health issues, demoralization, and burnout at greater rates compared to other students and often do not report these issues for fear of marginalization. Additionally, many neurodiverse students struggle in higher education due to environments that are not accessible. Considering these information points, authors surveyed space in the library to determine an appropriate area to create and pilot the Wellness Room. Funding was established through an internal grant and a study room was approved for use in the pilot. Resources were provided with autonomous space, feminist ethics of care, and trauma informed care tenets. Feedback from student focus groups guided decisions about supplies that were purchased and furniture selections. A literature review was conducted to explore what other institutions had implemented and to examine strategies that would benefit health sciences and neurodiverse students. It was determined through student feedback gathered from the pilot that the room was not only needed, but appreciated. The library quickly realized students had outgrown the pilot space and expanded the Wellness Room in order to offer additional supplies and space for growth. The Wellness Room project was so popular, it was also expanded to a self-serve, open area of the library called the Wellness Corner. Students are able to use wellness supplies, coloring books, puzzles, and blankets whenever needed, even when the Wellness Room is in use. Authors looked for inexpensive but impactful items to add to the Wellness Corner and initial feedback has been positive. Due to the student centric and student led nature of these projects, authors continue to monitor feedback and fulfill requests for wellness tools. Additions to the room and corner are under consideration, including a small collection of wellness books. The library’s wellness projects have proven to be cost effective, popular, and a beneficial library service.

Using A General Survey To Determine Value: One Health Sciences Library's Experience Customizing the MISO Survey
Sally Bowler-Hill, Melissa Rethlefsen, Robyn Gleasner, Lori D. Sloane, Laura J. Hall, Ingrid Hendrix, and Kristin Proctor
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to obtain reliable data about satisfaction with and value of services and resources to users at a health sciences library using the Measuring Information Service Outcomes (MISO) Survey.
METHODS: The study team evaluated multiple survey options including MISO, LibQual, LibStat, and creating an in-house survey. The ITHAKA survey was not considered due to its length and complexity. We selected MISO based on its flexibility/customizability, professional administration, ease of use, previous use of the tool, and historically high response rates. The team significantly customized the survey tool, adding 40 customized or local questions. The survey was distributed in February 2023 and sent to a sample of 4,223 faculty, staff, and students.
RESULTS: The survey received a 43% response rate, with a 38% completion rate. Custom questions that had been used before, thus providing longitudinal data, and custom questions with free text responses provided the most useful data. Data from the survey is being used to inform instructional offerings and plan furniture for a large remodeling project. However, some custom quantitative questions and several of the questions used from MISO’s question bank provided incomplete or uninterpretable data. Some respondents expressed dismay at MISO’s mandatory race/ethnicity and gender questions, data the study team did not need for our intended use. As with previous administrations, the amount of email sent to the campus survey administrator by respondents was unmanageable due to the highly personable nature of the survey invitation templates. Additionally, each administration of the MISO survey has been progressively more difficult to run though a biomedical IRB, showing gaps between IRB’s at the undergraduate institutions MISO predominantly serves and the IRB this library uses.
CONCLUSION: Despite the obstacles, health sciences libraries should seriously consider using general library customer satisfaction surveys. The professional vetting and administration that goes into a fee-for-use survey like MISO provides significant value in terms of its usability, both for the survey team and potential survey respondents. The tools provided to help administer and monitor the survey, as well as the rigor of participating in a cohort minimize distractions and keep the survey project on track. The data can also be used as a baseline for more targeted in-house assessments that dig deeper into specific areas.
