Gordon B. Olson Library

Instruction

The goals of our information literacy program are to enable students to think critically about the research process and to teach them to hone their ability to find, evaluate, and use information at a university level. The instruction librarians offer instruction sessions that will provide your students with information literacy skills which will help them with their research projects and class assignments.

Our instruction sessions are designed to heighten student awareness of the scholarly resources suitable to their discipline and level of education. We strive to create a classroom environment in which students have the opportunity to actively learn effective techniques for searching scholarly databases and selecting high-quality resources.

We encourage you to schedule instruction sessions with us. Please refer to our guidelines and contact Mara West or Ben Bruton to schedule a session in the library.

Library Assignments:
We advise instructors to verify the availability of library resources when making class assignments. We encourage faculty to consult with the librarians if there is any doubt as to whether the library will have the resources to meet their students’ needs.
