Guidelines for Faculty Requesting Course-integrated Classes
General:
First priority for scheduling classes with HSC Librarians is for the six HSC colleges
The HSCL Instruction Lab (room C2-3) has 27 computers; some additional participants can be accommodated.
Librarians can also teach in other locations in the Colleges, if the room is equipped for internet access
Scheduling:
Liaison Librarians to the Colleges and/or Departments should be contacted for scheduling classes. Other Librarians may be asked by the Liaison to assist in teaching classes
Because both room and librarian must be scheduled, it is optimal to contact the librarian as soon as the faculty member determines there should be a library component.
Faculty are asked to provide multiple possible dates
Classes should be scheduled for a time when students have a related assignment, when possible
Faculty will be sent confirmation of the arrangements agreed upon by the Liaison Librarian either by mail or electronically
Content:
Class content will be developed cooperatively with Faculty and Librarians to suit the particular class
An assignment for the students should be mutually agreed on by Faculty member and Liaison Librarian and communicated to students before the Library class
A copy of the assignment should be provided to the Liaison prior to the class session
Attendance:
Faculty are encouraged to attend the class session to endorse the value of the session
Faculty are asked to make class attendance mandatory; HSCL Librarians will take attendance and provide a copy of the list to the faculty member when the sessions are completed
