Do your classes need help getting started with their
research? Demystifying the electronic catalog? Tackling reference resources? Mining the
Internet? The Library faculty offers a variety of instructional services to introduce
students to the LaGuardia Library and to library research in general. Tours and classes
can be tailored to the topic under discussion in your class and/or to your class's current
research assignments. Classes take place in the Library's state-of-the-art electronic
classroom, where students can got hands-on feel for the computers they will be using to do
their research.
To schedule a session in the electronic classroom call:
Professor Ken Peeples, ext. 5430.
He will need your name, course number, date and time of the class, and number of students
in the class. Most important, supply a copy of your assignment and/or syllabus and a
specific idea of what you would like you students to learn in the library orientation
session. The earlier you can supply the assignment and/or syllabus and specify your needs,
the more research your library instructor can do in advance to tailor the presentation to
your class's requirements and help improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your
students' library research. |
