Find Library Assistance

Library instruction: For your class, organization or event, request a library instruction session. A variety of options are available: basic tour of library, using the library's databases, critically evaluating information, the ethical use of information and more. Traditional undergraduate faculty contact Ann Penke to schedule. Kellett School (Evening/Online) faculty contact Jamie Kellner.

Meet with a librarian: If you're new to Lakeland or would like an update on what's available, contact a librarian for an individualized meeting. Librarians can also help with designing assignments that utilize the resources of Lakeland's John Esch library.

Customized library guide: The librarian can create a research guide customized to assignments that students will encounter in your class. Examples for existing guides can be found at LibGuides. Contact Jamie Kellner at 920-565-1038 ext. 2419 or email kellnerja@lakeland.edu. A minimum of two weeks preparation time is needed.

Blackboard discussion, a librarian & you: invite a librarian into your Blackboard discussion group. When your students are undertaking a research project, ask a librarian to join your Blackboard discussion group to share research tips. Contact Jamie Kellner at 920-565-1038, ext. 2419 or email him.

Putting items on reserve: Traditional undergraduate faculty can contact Ann Penke, library director, about putting items on reserve. Items on reserve are available at the library front desk and are for use in the library.
