If it is not possible for you to have library instruction for your class, here are some helpful hints for assignments that require use of the library resources 1. To minimize student frustration, ask your Liaison Librarian to look over your assignment even if it is one you assign every semester. Library resources are constantly changing. Your Liaison Librarian can make sure the appropriate resources are still available. 2. If you are assigning one particular book or article that the entire class must read, have the item or copy of the article placed in Reserves. This helps prevent the item or article from being stolen or hidden and so minimizes student frustration. 3. If you are assigning certain web resources for your students, have your Liaison Librarian look them over. The librarian's training in evaluation of sources could provide new insight into the source's validity. 4. Many professors tell their students not to use
web resources. Be specific about whether this includes electronic journals.
While an electronic journal is in a web-based format, its contents are
often exactly the same as the print version. Many journals at the UF
libraries are only available electronically.
