LIBRARY INSTRUCTION POLICYTo support the curricular and research needs of library users, the librarians of Ingram Library offer numerous library/research instruction classes throughout the semester. Basic library instruction classes are 45 minute sessions that focus on a particular topic. Advanced library instruction that is subject/discipline specific or assignment specific is provided by departmental library liaisons. BASIC LIBRARY INSTRUCTIONStudents enrolled in 1/2000 level courses, inexperienced researchers, and those students needing refresher classes in basic research are strongly encouraged to sign-up for the basic library instruction sessions.

ADVANCED LIBRARY INSTRUCTIONUpon faculty request, library instruction classes will be designed and taught for 3/4000 and graduate level course by librarians to discuss sources relevant to a specific subject or a specific class assignment. Appointments must be made at least two weeks in advance of the requested instruction date with the requesting faculty member's library liaison. A copy of the class syllabus must be forwarded to the instructing librarian. Faculty requesting library instruction sessions should indicate to the librarian, at the time of the request, if there are students in the class who have special disability needs. Students in wheelchairs attending a library instruction session may use the staff elevator located in Circulation to gain access to the classroom. Those students should arrive prior to the beginning of the class period and use the door leading to Technical Services for elevator access.Library instruction classes are conducted in the Library Instruction Classroom. This room is reserved for library instruction and can only be scheduled for use by a librarian. Classes should meet the librarian at the appointed time in the lobby of the Library. The instructing librarian will accompany the class to the Library Instruction Room. The classroom instructor is expected to be present during the library presentation. Students will be requested to complete an evaluation form at the end of the session. High school groups are welcomed for library tours during the breaks. Appointments should be scheduled at least two weeks in advance and should be made by the school media specialist.
