Library Instruction
Library instruction sessions are available for any class offered at LCCC. These sessions can be general introductions to our library and our resources or can be tailored to meet the specific needs of any class. Please consider this invitation if your course requires any type of research assignment. A librarian will work with you to develop a customized library instruction session to meet the research needs of your students.
To request one or more library instruction sessions for a class please contact the library by phone at 570-740-0415 or via e-mail at library@luzerne.edu with as much notice as possible. Instruction sessions are scheduled on a first come, first served basis, and we will make every effort to accommodate session requests. In the event that a session cannot be scheduled at given time due to time, classroom, and/or staffing constraints, we appreciate your patience as we work with you to find an alternate day and time for the library instruction session.
