Instructional Support and Frameworks

Syllabus and Assignment Consultations

We offer faculty consultations to develop class syllabi, determine library resources relevant to your course content, and to collaborate on designing purposeful library research assignments. This includes consultations regarding ways to incorporate critical information literacy into library instruction sessions and resources.

Online and Asynchronous Instruction

We are available to consult with you on how to best and most appropriately collaborate and deliver library resources and information literacy materials through online platforms and asynchronous formats that suit the needs of your course content. We are also available to consult with pedagogical applications and considerations pertaining to the use of various digital tools.

Student Success

We provide programming and instruction with the goal of decreasing library anxiety by helping students lay the foundations for their research and cultivating a sense of belonging in the library.

Global Sites

We provide research and instruction support for faculty and students at NYU’s global sites. For additional information on services and support, email lib-global@nyu.edu.

Assessment

We provide post-instruction assessment to get a better understanding of student learning needs, with the goal of reflecting upon and improving our teaching practices.
