Upon your request, librarians will build a course-specific website (examples) to direct students to the best library resources related to your class. We will include how-to tutorials, custom database lists, recommended books and websites, and options for reference management (Endnote, Refworks, etc.). Use this request form or contact your department's subject librarian to have a customized LibGuide built for your course.
Note: Please request the guide at least 2 weeks in advance of the date that students will need to use it. Also, please send us your course syllabus.
