Library Instruction

About the Program

Information literacy is a way of defining, thinking about, and teaching the research process. It involves not only research skills, but also problem-solving and critical thinking.

Library faculty are here to assist you in developing information literacy skills for your students. We can provide support such as:

  • Full or partial instruction sessions in your classroom or one of the library’s computer labs.
  • Library research guides (LibGuides) with tailored resources for your classes 
  • Synchronous or prerecorded instruction for online/hybrid courses
  • Librarian-assisted work periods for students to gather sources and ask questions
