Please submit requests for library instruction at least one week (as applies) in advance of your preferred date. Every effort is made to tailor instruction to the specific research needs of each class.
To facilitate dialogue about the assignment and encourage student engagement, instructors are expected to attend library instruction sessions with their class, unless previous arrangements have been made with the librarian.
Faculty who plan to bring their class to a campus library for purposes other than library instructions should notify the campus library beforehand. For contact information, see Contact Us.
For more information about library instruction at NOVA Libraries, see the Library Instruction section on the About Us page.
Faculty can request to put an item on course reserve at a campus library by submitting a Course Reserve Form. For more information, contact a campus library.
