Library instruction served 3 ways

1.  Most of the time, when the library faculty get invited to meet with a class, we spend a whole
period working with the students, focusing on an assignment, disciplinary research norms, or information literacy in general.

2.  But, sometimes a whole class period is not required.  Introducing students to the resources relevant to the course or assignment and introducing them to the services and resources of the library can often be done in briefer window(~15-20 minutes).

3. And consultations are another way to get students the library instruction they need.  In one scenario, a librarian will meet briefly with a whole class and then students will sign up for required group appointments to get more tailored instruction.  Of course you are always welcome to recommend that your students meet with us.  We just ask that you consult with us if you are going to make it a requirement in your class.  We can facilitate tracking attendance, as well.

Request a library session or contact your library liaison to discuss.
