Embedded Librarian Services

Jacobs Library now offers Embedded Librarians. Having a Librarian embedded into your Brightspace Courses can take many forms. The librarians are flexible on giving only services the faculty member is needing. Some of the services we offer are:

Embedded library chat widget for students to ask questions when needed
Library research assistance for students, by appointment
Brightspace library discussion board
Online library instruction via zoom or recorded sessions
Library research tutorials for databases in the form of video recordings or PDF documents
