Library Instruction Request Form
Library Instruction Request Form
Library Instruction Request Form
Please fill out this form to request library instruction for your students, including synchronous instruction (such as a Zoom meeting) or asynchronous instruction (such as a module, a worksheet, or a pre-recorded video). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Simpson Library is not currently offering in-person instruction.
Library instruction is tailored to each course. Your librarian will examine your syllabus and your research assignments, and design instruction that will give your students the knowledge and skills that they need to complete your assignments. Please allow 1-2 weeks for your librarian to design instruction for your course.
This form is for faculty use only. If you're a student,
contact a librarian
for one-on-one help with research.
