Information Literacy Instruction
Information literacy instruction supports all UNE students and helps them develop the critical skills needed to evaluate and select sources for academic research. It strengthens general education outcomes and boosts student learning. See our information literacy standards and outcomes.
Classroom Instruction
Your subject librarian will work with you to design instruction that meets the needs of your specific course or assignment, or provides an introduction to library research and our physical and digital spaces and resources.
We can meet your students:
- One-on-one
- In small groups
- In our Biddeford Campus library instruction lab
- In your classroom
- Remotely over Zoom or another platform
Instruction can be one-time, or structured to support your course throughout the semester. Going away? We can substitute for your class.
Instruction Offerings
See our course offerings, or customize a session to meet the needs of your class.Â
Online Instruction
Online research and teaching librarian Cadence Atchinson can provide synchronous or asynchronous instruction to support online programs, create custom digital learning objects, and assist in the selection of electronic course materials, including quality open educational resources.
Special Collections
Education and Outreach Archivist Cathleen Miller can introduce your students to research using primary sources from UNE’s special collections and archives, as well as from other sources.
Guides & Tutorials
Our Research Skills pages help students master the research process, find and evaluate sources, cite, and share their work. Research by Subject pages suggest appropriate databases and other research tools for each subject area, and can be embedded in Brightspace. We also create video tutorials, class-specific playlists, course guides, or other resources tailored to meet the needs of your students.
