Library Instruction Sessions

Students enrolled in 1/2000 level courses, inexperienced researchers, and students needing refresher classes in basic research are strongly encouraged to sign-up for the basic library instruction sessions. Each class, approximately 45 minutes in length, covers one topic. All classes are conducted in Room 000 of the Library. For complete information on the topics listed below, see Library Instruction Policy.

ONLY sign up for the classes to which you can and will come. If you register for more than one session of the same class, just to give yourself some options, you are taking up space that another student could use; therefore, your second registration will be cancelled! Also, if you do not show up for a class for which you have registered, you will NOT be allowed to register for a replacement unless you have previously notified us that you unexpectedly cannot attend!
