Services for Faculty: Instructional Support

Did you know?

• A librarian can visit your class either in-person or online.
• During our visit, we can familiarize your students with information tools and resources in their various forms, and teach research skills necessary to apply these tools and resources effectively.
• You and your librarian will work together to tailor the instruction session to your particular outcomes and needs.

Ever wondered how to get a librarian to visit your online class? We have several options for you:

• We can add an Embedded Librarian (Class Librarian) to your class so that we can work directly with your students. Basically, this means that you will have your own class librarian. 
   
• You can include one or more of our Library How-To Videos in your classes. 
   
• We can embed tailor-made research guides, videos, and resources directly into your online or hybrid class. Simply review our list of Research Guides and choose one that will work for you. Don't see a guide you like in our list? A librarian can create a research guide specifically for your class. Just contact your Librarian Liaison to get started.
   
• You can recommend your students enroll in one of our Research Skills Tutorials in Canvas.

If you have any questions, please contact your librarian liaison.

Make Materials Available to Your Students

Many of our students cannot afford their textbooks. The L & LC is happy to place a copy of your textbook on reserve for your students on either campus. To do so, we need you to provide us with a copy of your texts.

Please print, complete, and bring this form into the L & LC with a copy of your textbook:
