Faculty/Librarian Collaboration

Librarians welcome the opportunity to collaborate with faculty to incorporate information literacy skills into their existing courses.  We work with students in exploring library resources, developing search strategies, and thinking critically about how to approach information.  This can take the form of one or more instruction sessions, developing class assignments, or team teaching.

 

What Can Librarians Teach Your Students?

  • Developing a research topic

  • Evaluating information for credibility (websites, scholarly articles, and other source types)

  • Effective search strategies for database searching

  • Keyword searching vs. subject searching

  • Recommendations for best platforms/databases to use

  • Finding background information

  • The peer review process, and how scholarly information is disseminated

  • Citation management using RefWorks
