Please fill out and submit this form to Linda Lerman, Director of Library Services, at least two weeks prior to requested date. You will receive written confirmation as soon as the class is scheduled. Prior to the scheduled date, the librarian assigned to conduct the Library Instruction [LI] session will contact you to discuss the specific nature and needs of your class. Library Instruction classes are held in the library and presentations usually run about an hour. Faculty members are expected to attend all sessions they schedule. In order to save class time you might want to have your class meet you in the library prior to the start of the session.

The following topics may be covered in order to familiarize the students with the services of the Library and to provide a solid basis for doing research in any library. Feel free to check mark one or more of the topics below which you would like the librarian to emphasize.
Please check mark desired subjects
1.General information on the NCC Library's services - hours, location of collections, interlibrary loan, etc.

Please send a copy of your assignment through inter-office mail or as an e-mail attachment to Linda Lerman or Gunnar Sahlin or summarize the assignment in the box below.
