The NECC librarians are available to help incorporate information literacy into your existing course and assignments. Contact us anytime to set up an appointment and we'll be happy to meet with you to review what you are asking your students to do now, and how those course requirements can be re-framed with an information literacy focus. We can also consult via email if that is more convenient.
Librarians have also aided in program development efforts, particularly in determining which course within a program is most appropriate for the Information Literacy Intensive designation.
The NECC Librarians provide a formal component of information literacy instruction for NECC IL Intensive Courses, and sessions may be scheduled at any time the library is open, including evenings. Classes are taught by a Reference Librarian, but we require that the class instructor must also be present.
We ask for at least one week of advance notice in to schedule instruction to allow adequate preparation time. It is also helpful for the librarian to have a copy of your assignment and/or syllabus as this will help us tailor the session to your students’ needs.
In addition to familiarizing students with the "nuts and bolts" of using library resources, some topics we may cover in relation to your course include:
