Library Coaches are undergraduate peer mentors trained in research skills. They can help your students with finding quality information about a topic for their course, find background information or answer other questions about the Libraries. Library Coaches offer drop-in desk hours and are also available by appointment.

We offer four standalone workshops aimed at helping students develop research questions, evaluate sources, understand academic honesty and plagiarism, and sharpen their skills for upper-level assignments. You can share these workshops with your classes and allow them to earn extra credit for attending--all through Canvas Commons and the SOAR platform. Check out our tutorial on importing these extra credit workshops
