Library Instruction

About

The library instruction program strives to teach our students effective research skills enabling them to search electronic and printed resources to locate needed information. Through the library instruction program, the library teaching staff also educates students to be critical thinkers so that they can evaluate the merit and validity of any information identified in the course of the research process.

Library instruction classes are given at the request of a faculty member and the class is taught by one of the reference librarians. The length and content of the library research lectures are tailored to the needs of each class. In addition, another service provided is research sessions where an assigned reference librarian meets with the class in the electronic classroom A142. There is no formal lecture but the librarian is available to assist individuals with their research. Yet another important service is the one-on-one research appointments. Students can make appointments with a reference librarian to get in-depth assistance with their assignments. Please complete the Library Instruction Registration Request Form and sign up today!
