Library Instruction


The semester is well underway and our Librarian, Eunice Teel, has had a good turn out for her library instruction sessions. Eunice explores the electronic resources that are available here at North Central Michigan College, explains the importance of selecting juried information from a library versus that which is available on the Internet, and touches on some of the tools offered by our online databases to track and cite sources of information once you have found them. Instructional sessions are offered here in the library or can be scheduled at your off-campus classroom location. Not only are these sessions packed with information to make you successful, but they always feature Eunice's fun, eclectic humor. If you haven't attended a one of these sessions talk to your teacher today about scheduling one for your class, or watch the events section of our web page for independent sessions. As always, if you have questions about research, contact library@ncmich.edu to schedule an appointment or stop in to the library.
