Librarian-led or Archivist-led Instruction

Librarians and Archivists are available to lead class sessions focused on the development of information literacy concepts and skills, such as topic development, searching for information, evaluating sources, using information effectively and ethically, and staying current with information. Librarians can also work with you to incorporate these same concepts into your online course.
