COVID-19 ResourcesWe can help meet your teaching goals and students’ learning needs. Evidence shows that students benefit from detailed research guidelines, lists of useful databases, library research guides, and librarian contact information [1].
Your liaison librarian can help you with:
- Making course readings available on course reserve or in Quercus
- Checking your syllabus for copyright compliance
- Teaching your students the information skills they’ll need for your course. This can take the form of:
- In-class presentations customized to your assignments
- Office hours or drop-in sessions outside of class
- Online research guides, which can be customized and embedded in Quercus
- Short instructional videos
- Ensuring that the library’s collection has the right resources to support your assignments
