Library Support for Online Teaching: Home

Although the library building is open for limited hours, our reference services and extensive collection of digital resources are available online 24/7, and the librarians are on duty to assist you and your students. This guide was created for the the transition to remote instruction in March 2020, and provides tips to ensure that course materials are available for your students and provide any library instruction they may need.
