COLUMN: FUTURE VOICES IN PUBLIC SERVICES Academic libraries and public users Estefani Mann University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, AR This essay discusses the pros and cons of public access into academic libraries. Such access can make these libraries busier and less inviting to the students they intend to serve. Oppositely, this access allows for better record keeping regarding local histories and can greatly increase the local opinion of the university if non-students can use the resources housed in the university library.
