Library Instruction Session Guidelines

  • The best time for a library instruction session is after an assignment has been assigned and students have chosen their topics. Students are more likely to be motivated to learn about research resources at the point of need.        

  • Students learn best by doing! We encourage you to allow time to actively reinforce their learning through hands-on practice.       

  • We strive to accommodate all requests! Please submit requests as early as possible--at least one week in advance.

Asynchronous Tutorials

Getting Started with Library Research--this tutorial guides students through getting started with college research using the library to find sources. (Works best on a computer (versus a mobile device or tablet) with Firefox, Chrome, or Windows Edge browsers.)

 

Assignment Review

If you are looking for materials to support course learning outcomes or have an assignment that includes research, consider working with a Wright College librarian (whether or not you are also expecting to have a librarian visit your class) to identify resources that support your assignments and course design.

Open Educational Resources (OER)

OER are free and open textbook alternatives. Review resources for faculty or contact Tineka Scalzo (tscalzo@ccc.edu) for assistance with:

  • Identifying potential OER
  • Using OER with a class
  • Information on authoring and sharing your own OER
