The Digital Innovation Lab at the MacPhaidin Library is excited to announce four new projects that will be funded by Digital Innovation Grants for 2024-25. The recipients this year represent multiple departments across campus, and will be led by: Kevin Friend, Communications/Journalism, Maureen Boyle, Communications/Journalism, James Bohn and Katie Elia-Shannon, Visual and Performing Arts and Digital Media Production, and Alexandra Uhl, Sociology and Biology. More information about individual projects will be highlighted throughout the Spring semester as they are implemented into course curricula. We again congratulate all of this year's recipients and we look forward to seeing these projects take shape.

Need help using a database or crafting a citation? Reference Librarians have created a library of video tutorials for students to provide them tips on accessing the library's resources and services. Videos focus on many topics, including using databases, navigating the library’s catalog, and ordering items through interlibrary loan. In addition, several videos will help students as they embark on more sophisticated research. Those tutorials include those that explain the structure of a scholarly journal article, show how to compile an annotated bibliography, and provide tips on how to differentiate between scholarly and popular material.

The 2023-2024 was record-breaking for library instruction, with our librarians teaching over 1300 students over the course of the academic year. The librarians taught students in 80 different classes – a 55 percent increase in the number of classes taught the previous year.  Those classes represented 16 different disciplines, including physics, business administration and religious studies.  We are hoping to continue our record-breaking ways in 2024-2025 and would be more than happy to work with your students.  If you would like to arrange library instruction– in your classroom or in the library’s teaching spaces – contact your Liaison Librarian.
