Resources for Faculty
Faculty! We're here for you!!
Library Instructional Services are available to classes, departments, offices and individuals. The Libraries offer classes and one-on-one instruction in the use and interpretation of library resources in various subject areas and formats. The goal of the instruction program is to teach students to conduct effective research and think critically about the research process.
