Embedded Learning

The Booher Library Electronic Resources Librarian visits the classroom to make presentations upon request of the professor. To date he has made appearances (in person and virtually) in courses for every degree program and has been a regular guest of Professors Baker, Bishop, Colombo, Jangha, McClure, St. David, and many other members of the Southwest faculty. Professors may reach out directly to library@ssw.edu to schedule an instructional visit from the library staff.
