Library Tours and 5-Minute Introductions

For classes that don't have a research-focused assignment, we offer brief introductions as a way to create awareness of library spaces, resources, and the research assistance at OC Libraries. We know that research literature shows a connection between library use and student success, so we are delighted to offer a library tour in our space or a 5-Minute introduction to library services in your space! 

Library Instruction

Focused on helping students succeed with your specific assignment and Student Learning Outcomes, Library Faculty employ active learning to introduce students to research tools and techniques tailored for your class. This instruction is designed to be immediately relevant to students’ research needs and provide a scaffold to a deeper understanding of searching, research, information literacy, lifelong learning, and/or critical thinking. Librarians can teach online, or at Bremerton, Poulsbo, or Shelton computer classrooms. At the Haselwood Library we provide a dedicated computer classroom.
