Learn about LibGuides: Faculty-Librarian Collaboration

This guide demonstrates how librarians at SWOSU are using LibGuides. Featured are examples of LibGuides interactive capabilities, library 2.0 resources, and instruction use.

In the Library Classrom

We will be making a few adjustments when we incorporate the use of LibGuides in our lesson plans.  

-LibGuides will cut down on the need for handouts.

 -LibGuides will potentially allow for more efficient use of class time.  Embedded videos, surveys and instruction at the point-of-need speed up the instruction process, freeing up more class time for discussion and hands-on searching.

What Faculty at Other Universities Say...

 “This is FANTASTIC!!!  The site looks tremendous and the students are all working on their papers now so the timing is perfect. “

"In short --we LOVE the library nursing guide and would like you to center the orientation around that. It is one stop shopping and you have done a marvelous job with it. Thank you so much! " 

 “I wondered how I could incorporate the library resources into my class, this makes my job so much easier!”

 "This all looks fantastic. I'll look forward to your email announcing this resource to our faculty, and will definitely urge students to use it.”

“The organization of the site makes it easy for students to use.  The tabs for books, websites, references tools, and others enable the student to go directly to relevant information. Useful information on cultures is at their fingertips.  They can search more purposefully rather than randomly looking for any possible source, and relying on the internet.”
