SERVICES
For the below services please contact any of the Berkeley City College Librarians:
LIBRARY ORIENTATION : To arrange a Library Orientation session for your class, contact a librarian or use the attached Library Orientation Request Form.
Library Orientations are a fun and easy way for students to become familiar with BCC library resources. You can help your students go beyond Google by scheduling a library orientation for your class. In just 50 minutes or less, a librarian can provide an orientation that is custom-tailored to the needs of your students. Library orientations increase students' ability to find research materials for their assignments and help them make the best use of the many print and electronic resources available to them. Help us help your students by giving us just 50 minutes of your class time.
BCC Librarians can come to your classroom or computer lab and show students information sources available to them on campus and online. We can customize these sessions for your class – anything from helping them focus their topics to searching for/evaluating web sites to correctly citing sources.
Please schedule your library orientation at least a week ahead of time. We encourage instructors to give their students any research-oriented assignments prior to the orientation so that librarians can better focus their instruction. Please give the librarian conducting an orientation for your class a copy of your research assignment prior to the orientation session. Feel free to call a librarian if you'd like help designing a research assignment for your class. We'd love to help.
You mayschedule a general or special-topic library orientation lecture for your class. The standard orientation is a 50-minute lecture-demonstration of basic information resources in the Berkeley City College Library. The content and length of an orientation can also be tailored to meet your specific needs. Once contacted, we will schedule the visit and discuss what information your students will need from the library, the details of the current assignment, etc. We do ask that you contact us at least one week in advance. To arrange a Library Orientation session for your class, please contact a librarian or use the attached Library Orientation Request Form
