This session will focus on the engagement strategies for collaborative work between librarians and mathematicians. The session will help explore the depth and breadth of these collaborations and provide attendees with examples of the many different ways mathematics and libraries can work together. The open roundtable discussion time will provide librarians with the opportunity to learn from each other and share potential collaboration methods and how to better connect. The session is for current mathematics librarians and liaisons, librarians who support STEM disciplines, and librarians interested in learning new engagement strategies.

Learning Objectives:

Learn new outreach and engagement strategies for working with mathematicians
Gain collaborative approaches to library services for STEM disciplines
Develope new connections within the STEM librarian community for future partnerships
