The TCC Library Instruction Program provides timely and responsive academic support for students, faculty, and staff by teaching and promoting information literacy, collecting relevant materials in the most useful formats, and providing access to educational technology.
Upon successful completion of the program, the student will be able to:
1. Employ strategic processes of inquiry to guide and refine information needs and search strategies (IIT, COK).
2. Select appropriate sources based upon information need and context (CRT, IIT, COK).
3. Use information ethically by citing sources in a standard citation style, with minimal errors (IIT, RES, COK).
4. Practice synthesizing information from more than one source into a new information product in preparation for future academic work. (COM, CRT, IIT, ICD, RES, COK)
5. Demonstrate the effective use of electronic search strategies (IIT, COK).
TCC's library faculty will teach with you to help your students practice information literacy skills that meet your course research and writing objectives.
Contact any one of the Library faculty to request materials. Please provide item title, author, publication year, edition number (if applicable) and your preference for print or electronic.
