Library Orientations & Instruction - Reference Librarians are available for orientations and/or instruction throughout the semester. We can tailor the presentation to a particular subject area (English, History, Nursing, etc.) or provide information on an Information Literacy topic (search strategies, evaluation of Internet, etc.) or do any combination that works best for you. Depending on the instruction or orientation you need for your class it may take a whole 50 minute period or possibly just ten to twenty minutes. Please contact Judy Vineyard at ext. 8404 to schedule an orientation. The more notice you can give us the better. We will do our best to accommodate last minute requests but cannot guarantee them.
Please let us know if you would like individual training for yourself.
Bibliographies/Pathfinders - We will help you prepare bibliographies or pathfinders for your subject areas - please give us at least two weeks notice.
Reserve Items - You may place items on reserve for your class by bringing them to the library and filling out a form. We do request at least 24 hours notice. Items may be placed on reserve for "2-hour library use only", "overnight", "3-day", or "7-day". Students MUST have a library card to access the reserve items (even the "2-hour library use only"). Fines for the "2-hour library use only" are $1 per hour, fines for "overnight", "3-day", and "7-day" are $5 a day. The Library does not purchase textbooks for reserve. If you would like your textbook on reserve for your students you will need to provide us with one. You may want to check with us first to make sure someone from your department has not already placed one on reserve.
