Library Services
Class Orientations

You can help your students go beyond Google by scheduling a library orientation for your class. In just one (1) hour or less, a librarian can provide an orientation that is custom-tailored to the needs of your students and course assignments. We can provide hands-on instruction for library research in our classroom. Library orientations increase students’ ability to find research materials for their assignments and help them make the best use of the many print and electronic resources available to them. Help us help your students by giving us just 1 hour of your class time.

Orientations should be scheduled at least one week in advance so that we can better serve you and your students. To schedule an orientation:

  • Check our online calendar for date and time availability
  • Fill out the online Orientation Request or come by the library’s information desk for the form
  • Email or interoffice mail the form to Elaine Wong (MS 24) in the library. If your students will be working on a specific assignment, please include a copy of the assignment.

You will receive a confirmation with the name and contact information of the librarian who will be conducting the orientation.
