For Instructors: Library Instruction

If you invite a librarian to your class for library instruction, these are some of the worksheets we might use.

Invite a librarian into your class for a general or custom library session! Bring your students to the LLC Library or I will visit your location. There are several different options:

• My most common instruction--30 to 60 minute intro to using library resources for a project/paper/speech in your class.
• A quick introduction (5-10 minutes) to the library's resources.  Show your students a face from the library.
• A tour of the physical library space.
• How to use the library's eBook collection.
• A longer general introduction (30-60 minutes) to searching our catalogs and databases. 
• A lesson on a specific database or resource for your class.
• How to choose a topic.
• A video created specifically for your online students.  See sample video created for Speech.
• How to evaluate sources found online or in your social media feed. Fake news! 
• How to cite sources in MLA or APA format.
• How to change social media privacy settings (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
• Worksheets designed to introduce students to the library.  For many classes at Lake Land, we already have a general introduction geared toward that audience.  (See samples to the left.)
• Any combination of the above, or something new. 

If you would like to schedule a library instruction session for your class(es), contact the librarian at 234-5533 or email Andy Cougill at libref@lakelandcollege.edu. Please provide the following information:
