BIBLIOGRAPHIC INSTRUCTION / ORIENTATIONS / TOURS OF THE LIBRARY |
| |
FIT faculty may request a bibliographic instruction (BI) session which is taught
by Reference faculty. BI sessions are typically an hour in length and
held in the Library.
The reference faculty
assigned to your class will confirm the date and time, and discuss your
assignment and any special materials required.
The Library BI sessions
will familiarize students with: |
| |
 |
The
Library and location of resources |
|
|
Resources in specific subject areas as well as available general resources |
|
|
Research skills |
|
| |
| |
| |
Please tell us the
objectives of your particular class and preferred dates/times. It is
recommended to coordinate orientations with a specific assignment.
|
| |
We ask that: |
| |
|
|
Orientation requests must be made at least a week in
advance. |
|
|
Classes will not
be held without an instructor present. |
|
|
Library orientations will be cancelled if
you and your class have not arrived within
15 minutes
of scheduled time. |
|
|
You encourage all of your students to attend
the session. Although they may have attended other Library sessions,
they will learn something new each time. |
