If instructors intend to provide students with class time for library research, we strongly recommend that they take advantage of one of our library instructional opportunities. Most students benefit from even a cursory introduction to the core library resources. Click here to schedule an instruction session for your class.

If instructors find it necessary or appropriate to bring their students to the MJC Library for structured research sessions without librarian-mediated instruction, this time needs to be scheduled in advance in order to avoid conflicts with other classes, insure availability of computer workstations, and allow the Library to schedule sufficient Reference Desk staff to assist students in the course of their research. Advance notice also helps us better advise Instructors on resource availability, and, if needed, allows us to pull relevant materials for more convenient access.

Faculty may schedule library research time for your classes by contacting the Library Instruction Coordinator by telephone (x6409) or email.
