Randall Bowman, reference/instruction librarian, and Barbara Gordon, associate professor of English, made a presentation titled “Targeted, not Generic, Library Instruction for First Year Writers” at the Conference on College Composition and Communication in St. Louis on March 22, 2012.
Their presentation discussed their approach of targeting library instruction to specific assignments in Dr. Gordon’s ENG 110 classes. The library and research instruction is spread over three sessions during the course of a semester, rather than given in a single class.
