This case study serves as a successful example of an external academic librarian-school librarian statewide partnership for other academic librarians in the United States to follow as they engage in outreach and marketing activities with high school students. A statewide partnership between a New Jersey academic librarian organization and a K-12 school librarian organization resulted in the formation of panels of New Jersey academic librarians who led virtual orientations to the academic library experience for New Jersey high school students. The virtual orientations to the academic library were developed to address students' feelings of anxiety when it comes to the academic library and to highlight the role that the academic library plays as a factor in the college choice of high school students. The success of the virtual library orientations held in October of 2021 will continue to influence future initiatives of the newly formed statewide partnership between academic librarians and school librarians in the state of New Jersey.
