Pushing the Limits: Creative Web Use in Libraries Related to Instruction
Research Strategies
(2000)
Abstract
This article explores creative ways libraries are using the web for instruction and to support faculty use of the web for teaching. A review of the literature, examination of web pages at 100 academic institutions, and correspondence with over 50 library user instruction coordinators were conducted as part of the author's sabbatical project. A variety of web-based instruction tools are highlighted. Important issues related to web-based instruction including identifying user needs, planning, faculty/librarian collaboration, as well as marketing and evaluation of web-related instruction are included in the discussion.
