Stratton Taylor Library offers a variety of online tutorials on information literacy topics like avoiding plagiarism and evaluating websites and other sources for reliability and accuracy.
At instructor request, the library can create a custom video tutorial on research skills and sources specific to a field of study. The custom tutorial can then be posted to a course e-campus page, or elsewhere.
Subject Bibliographies
Book lists, journal lists, or pathfinders based on resources available through the library may be produced in response to a specific need after a consultation to determine subject parameters, time requirements, and other factors.
Information Searching
New information technologies have enhanced our ability to locate and obtain general and specialized information sources. Our librarians are available to discuss your research project and determine how we can help.
