Information Literacy and Your Students

The CML offers general and specialized library instruction for students that can be scheduled during one of your class sessions. These sessions are usually held in the CML’s technology-enhanced classroom and can be designed around one of your assignments. To schedule a session, call 895-3593, stop by the CML, or access our online orientation form at http://www.library.unlv.edu/cml/instruction/registration.html.

For sessions at Lied Library, contact Jen Fabbi at 895-3884 or by email at jennifer.fabbi@unlv.edu. If you are unable to schedule a time for your students to work with library resources, please be sure to let them know that we’re in the building. Highlights for students include computers, quiet study space, a lab for the creation of teaching materials, and the resources they need to complete their assignments.

Strategies that can be integrated into your session:

*identifying and utilizing resources for a research or teaching assignment
*evaluating information, especially on the Internet
*looking at popular versus scholarly literature and understanding the concept of peer review
*looking at primary versus secondary sources of information
*proper citation of resources
