Research Support
The library staff are your research specialists. We support faculty at all stages of the research life-cycle:
- Plan: Supporting the organization of the resources needed for the research and developing a data management plan.
- Acquire, Process, and Analyze: Collecting or locating needed resources or datasets and using quantitative or qualitative tools.
- Preserve, Disseminate and Discover: Confirming Tri-Agency policies, uploading to T-Space, and sharing the research with the world.
Teaching Support
The library staff can provide support for course goals and students' learning needs. This can be accomplished through the following methods:
- Course Guides: Showcasing print and digital resources that align to the course content to support in-class and additional learning.
- In or Out of Class Instructional Sessions: Teaching students the skills to navigate the plethora of databases and how to critically assess the information they find within these resources.
- Instructional Videos: Creating short videos that supplement students' learning of information resources.
- Reviewing Syllabi: Ensuring each syllabus follows the CIRHR template, has accurate citations, links to non-paywall content, and is copyright compliant.
- Resource Acquisition: Purchasing required and supplementary course material.
