Library Instruction for Fall 2014 – Book Now!

Whether your students need to learn basic library skills or advanced subject-specific research strategies, the Library can help. We offer three online tutorials, in-person classes, and online assignment guides.

ONLINE D2L TUTORIALS:

Highly popular for all modes of instruction, our online D2L tutorials also provide a convenient way to help distance learners gain library research skills.  See http://www.langara.bc.ca/library/research-help/library-instruction.html for more information.

1. Introduction to Research – Introduces academic library research to first-year students in all disciplines.

2. Avoiding Plagiarism – Discusses intentional and unintentional plagiarism, explains why students need to be aware of the issues surrounding academic integrity, and provides clear solutions for avoiding plagiarism.

3. Evaluating Web Resources – Introduces website evaluation criteria to students in all disciplines.

IN-PERSON LIBRARY CLASSES:

Whether you’re planning a major research assignment or just want to be sure students are comfortable using library resources, your subject librarian can work with you to design a class tailored to meet the specific needs of your students. These classes can be held in a computer lab for hands-on learning, or in a regular classroom.

ONLINE ASSIGNMENT GUIDES:

Your subject librarian can create a custom online guide to help students with the research component of their assignments. See examples of assignment guides: http://www.langara.bc.ca/library/research-help/assignment-help/index.html
