Did You Know?

Faculty Information Guide

At the start of this academic year, the library rolled out a brand-new Faculty Information guide!  Our guide brings together a wealth of information for faculty about library services and resources from requesting resources and providing instruction to recommended resources on topics like online teaching best practices, EDI, and OER.  Look to the Faculty Information guide for answers to your library-related questions and for content to support your teaching and professional development.

 

Library Instruction

The library provides a variety of instruction options for faculty and students.  Library Orientations, research sessions, and individual help are provided by the librarians, both on campus and remotely using Zoom.  Faculty can request an orientation for on-ground classes in the library or the classroom.  For online classes, a librarian can provide an orientation via a live Zoom session.  Asynchronous courses have the option to provide their students with the Library Orientation Course in Canvas.  In addition to the course, the library provides video tutorials for students and faculty.
