Niche Academy helps academic libraries show their direct contribution to student success by providing the ability to easily measure student learning outcomes. Our customers use Niche Academy to teach students how to conduct better research, use library resources, and much more.

We let you deliver library instruction at the point-of-need and allow you to embed tutorials in your website, your LibGuides, and within your existing campus LMS, where teaching faculty can assign them as a part of their regular course materials. Tutorials can even be pre-assigned to free up classroom time for more in-depth conversations and troubleshooting.

With the Niche Academy platform, your training is always available, but still interactive so you can give individual feedback and assess learning outcomes. You can create your own training or take advantage of our collection of ready-made and highly customizable training that’s been created by Niche, peer librarians, and other experts - all included in your subscription.
