Course-Integrated Instruction

The faculty librarians are available to collaborate with you in the design of course-integrated library instruction sessions for your students.

• Call, email, or come to the library to arrange a class session.
• We schedule library instruction in LIBR 139 or will come to your classroom.
• When scheduling your library sessions, please bring a copy of the assignment and let us know what outcomes you expect from the session and the assignment.
• Plan to spend time with us discussing your course and assignment goals.
• Please schedule your class session at least a week in advance. We do not schedule classes during the first week of a quarter.
• We ask that instructors be in attendance during the class session.

Remember

• Library instruction is most effective when students are working on relevant assignments at the time of the session.
• Your students may benefit from more than one library session. These can be scheduled sequentially, or at intervals to allow time for investigation and follow-up.
