🎙️ New Podcast Episode: “Reigniting Purpose in Academic Libraries” with Frank Menchaca📚 Leadership with Darrell W. Gunter – Where Leadership Begins With You

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with thought leader Frank Menchaca, author of “Start a New Fire: Measuring the Value of Academic Libraries in Undergraduate Learning.”

Frank challenges the status quo—calling for libraries to evolve from passive repositories into active training grounds for the critical thinking, writing, and analytical skills our students need now more than ever.

🔍 We unpack:

• The crisis of value and funding in academic libraries

• Why traditional metrics like gate counts no longer apply

• How libraries can directly impact student learning outcomes

• And the leadership shift required to make it happen

For academic leaders, librarians, educators, and anyone concerned with the future of learning—this is a must-listen.
