For Faculty

• Provide general, course-specific, or assignment-specific instruction for students taking courses in your department
• Provide specialized reference services to faculty and majors
• Provide an individual orientation for new faculty members
• Share information about library services and resources
• Offer demonstrations or workshops of new resources and services of interest to your department
• Provide consultation services for students writing research papers or comprehensive projects.
• Communicate with the library about new areas of research, courses, and programs in your departments.
