摘要
With the increase of student veteran enrollment under the Post 9/11 Veterans Education Assistance Act of 2008, colleges and university campuses are beginning to accommodate the needs of this population. Student veterans present unique challenges to institutions of higher education as they are adjusting to a new culture and coping with both visible and invisible injuries. Some of these war-related injuries affect behavior in both classroom and extracurricular settings and some result in learning disabilities. Librarians who understand the experiences of student veterans can better assist these students with their academic goals. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
