Assistance for Faculty and Instructors

Librarians are eager to collaborate with you to promote information literacy among our students. Librarians are available to instruct students in the best strategies for locating, evaluating and using information resources effectively and ethically. The Library instruction program provides the following services:

  • Library Instruction Classes

    When you request a Library instruction session, a librarian will collaborate with you to provide a class which is tailored to your class goals and assignments. Library instruction sessions provide students with an overview of resources in a subject area, present strategies for searching databases, and provide guidance for evaluating the resources discovered.
    • Request a library instruction class for your students
    • Contact the Coordinator of Library Instruction: Meg Grotti, (302-831-6310)

  • Library workshops

    The Library offers workshops on specific resources, new technologies, and other topics of interest. For more information please see the list of current workshops.
