Course related guides and tutorials
Objective: Provide librarians' suggested resources for a specific course or research assignment.
Description

The library provides a number of course-related library guides. You may contact a subject librarian for help in creating a course guide specifically tailored to your course or a shorter guide that outlines research steps for a particular assignment. For example, if students in your course are required to give an oral presentation or write a critique of a journal article, you may want to ask a subject librarian to identify relevant databases and to suggest appropriate search terms. You can put this information in BlackBoard or on a webpage for the students to consult. You may want to check the guide list to see if a course guide for the subject material of your course already exists.
