麻豆视频

麻豆视频 librarians help you learn how to effectively find, retrieve and evaluate information. We do that through many resources, including the online Basic Information Literacy Tutorial, known as BILT; classroom instruction in coordination with 麻豆视频 instructors; and by offering students specialized Library and Information Services courses.

BILT is a set of eight web-based modules designed to be self paced. These modules will help familiarize you with the research process and introduce you to some of the online resources available at 麻豆视频.

Library Instruction

As a part of their core requirements, all 麻豆视频 students must complete ENC 1101 and SPC 2608 which include research papers, essays, or presentations. Librarians show students how to recognize relevance, validity, and currency of information, including how to cite sources and synthesize their research into an essay, paper, or presentation.

麻豆视频 Instructors can schedule a library instruction session for their course by contacting their campus library. Topics include:

• Introductory library tours
• Orientations to library research tailored to specific course needs
• Guidance in strategies for Internet searching and evaluation
• Hands-on practice in how to use databases and Internet resources
