About Library Instruction

The goal of the TRU Library Instruction Program is to teach students the skills and abilities they need to become information literate life-long learners. Developing these skills will enable students to complete their research assignments more effectively and efficiently. Library classes are designed in a graduated structure and are course-specific, acting as an extension of regular classroom activities.

To ensure a successful Library instruction class, please:

• Book early to ensure a librarian is available for your preferred dates and times.
• Provide an assignment or collaborate with Instruction and Research Services Librarian, Elizabeth Rennie to create a relevant research assignment around which the lesson plan for the library class can be built.
• Attend and actively participate in the class with your students: your presence and participation influences and motivates them.
