Instruction policy
To ensure a successful class, please observes the following guidelines:
- Give your librarian two weeks’ notice to allow for making arrangements and meeting with you to develop a lesson plan, if necessary.
- Think critically about where you would like your library session to take place. Classes are usually help in one of Bell Library’s computer labs (Computer Lab 1 in Room 109 or Computer Lab 2 in Room 216A), to ensure all students have a computer to work at. We can also visit classrooms, depending on the lesson plan decided on and the available technology.
- Attend the session with your students. Your participation and support are critical to the success of library instruction sessions.
Workshops at Bell Library
Propose a workshop
If you would like to conduct a workshop at Bell Library or if you would like to suggest a topic or speaker, please contact the Director of User and Research Services, Lisa Louis, at 361-825-5905 or lisa.louis@tamucc.edu.
Accessibility
Bell Library strives to create an inclusive, accessible learning space. We do this by encouraging faculty members, students, and staff to notify the librarian teaching their class or organizing workshops of any accommodations prior to a class or workshop. Faculty and staff are encouraged to work with their librarian directly and in conjunction with Disability Services to find accessible solutions.
If you are unsure who to contact to request accommodations, contact the Director of User and Research Services, Lisa Louis, at 361-825-5905 or lisa.louis@tamucc.edu.
