faculty, and staff to learn to use the wide range of library resources,
traditional and electronic, available both within the Libraries and in
dorms, offices, and computer centers through the campus network. Our reference
and instruction services build on each other to instill an appreciation
and provide the skills necessary for life-long learning.
Faculty may schedule an instruction
session for classes or groups to focus on specific research interests.
