Librarian Instruction Requests GCC librarians collaborate with faculty to teach information literacy skills: we make sure students understand the research process, and that they’re able to find, evaluate, and use information in academic work. We can teach in the library computer classroom or your regular classroom. We can also work with you to create exercises in Moodle, videos, handouts, or other instructional materials, which you can use instead of or in addition to in-class instruction. Library instruction works best when directly connected to a research assignment.
