SCC's Librarians possess a wealth of knowledge regarding instruction in the area of Information Literacy. We've put together some guidelines than can help faculty in other divisions to inject Information Literacy skills into their assignments. You can also contact your division liaison to discuss how you can have your assignments improve your students' abilities to find, evaluate, and use information resources.

Bring your students on by the library for an orientation! Our librarians love to teach students where to look for information and how to evaluate information sources. We can tailor the presentation to focus on specific issues or resources (e.g. research databases, reputably web-based sources, books, etc) that would be useful for your students. Fill out an online request for an orientation or contact your division liaison to set one up.

The library can help you to make sure students have access to the information resources necessary for the successful completion of your class assignments through our Course Reserve program. Read more about how you can get that vital information in the hands of your students.

Want to see your favorite book, DVD, or CD added to the library's collection? Fill out our materials request form and we'll do our best to oblige. Please note that the library has very limited funds for materials purchases, but we will prioritize all requests with an eye on providing the best possible service to the SCC community.

The Library's Media Department is here to assist you with your media equipment needs. Whether you need a laptop computer for a conference, a TV and DVD player for your classroom, or even a film strip projector (!), we can probably help.

The library has developed a series of guidelines regarding copyright issues pertaining to educational materials. Read on to learn more about maintaining compliance with the laws and regulations that govern intellectual property rights.
