Research & Instruction Department

Every department has a subject librarian, who is available for one-to-one, or small group, research assistance. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to make appointments with their subject librarians. We look forward to working with you!

Faculty can contact their subject librarian to provide instruction for the particular research needs of their classes.  This can be an in-person class or Zoom-based, and/or include a tailored Web-based course guide.  Below is a link to the Course Guides currently in use.  Please contact your Subject Librarian if you'd like to arrange for library instruction.  If you are teaching a general course, and would like an information literacy component, contact Nancy Lewis.

We have developed First Year Student Information Literacy Guidelines, and are happy to work with instructors to help achieve these goals. 

If you are interested in Citation Management tools, we have a guide to assist.  You may also contact librarian John Hutchinson.

Also of interest, Amber Gray is the campus point person for the Turnitin function available to instructors through Brightspace.
