Library Instruction

The librarians at Montgomery College have many ways to support your students. Our aim is to partner with faculty to help students successfully use library resources and build information literacy skills.

"Information literacyis the set of integrated abilities encompassing the reflective discovery of information, the understanding of how information is produced and valued, and the use of information in creating new knowledge and participating ethically in communities of learning."

The first step is to share your instructional goals with the library using therequest form. We can then plan a variety of options with you, including:

  • providing live instruction (online or in person)
  • developing instructional content for you to assign to students asynchronously
  • helping you incorporate modules from our collection of tutorials and quizzes into your course content
  • helping you modify or create assignments that achieve information literacy learning outcomes

Explore the options below to learn how MC librarians can partner with you to achieve student success.
