Instruction

Library services

Librarians support teaching by:

  • Conducting classes as guest lectures on library resources, searching databases for research and evidence-based practice, and setting up citation management tools.  Contact your librarian to request a librarian-led class or for more information. 
  • Customized, Web-based research guides for academic disciplines or special topics.
  • Educational content for your Canvas course sites to help your students use library resources.
  • Consulting on selecting and accessing course materials.
  • Helping your students find and use library resources. 

Library resources

Are you interested in linking to library resources in your Canvas course website? Speak with your librarian about linking directly to library resources using permalinks. Permalinks point directly to the intended resource.

VCUarts Qatar faculty can place materials on course reserve to ensure all students in the class have equal access to the assigned material. For more information on Course Reserves, please contact Roshni Baker at rbaker4@vcu.edu and copy vcuqlibrary@vcu.edu
