The Oxnard College Library Instruction program aims to build information competency in students and uses the ACRL Framework for Information Literacy in Higher Education as a guide for all library instruction activities. The program supports Institutional Student Learning Outcome 6 - Information Retrieval and Technological Competency: Student demonstrates the ability to find, organize, understand, critically examine and use information from various sources using a variety of technologies.
Librarians are available to provide instruction in-person in the Library, in your classroom, or online via Zoom. Library instruction sessions can range from a brief orientation to library resources or a longer session that is tailored to meet the needs of your assignment. More than one session can be scheduled in order to provide instruction that aligns with the research goals of your various assignments. Fill out the library instruction request form to schedule an orientation with a librarian. If you would like to visit the Library with your class for a tour, please fill out the library class visit request form.
If your class is asynchronous, we can work with you to find an option that works best for your students - this could be drop-in hours or a scheduled live Zoom session at a set day/time that works for your students.
We are happy to work with you to create a session that supports your class, students, and assignments!
