Welcome
to the Blinn College Library!
The Blinn College Library
will be giving tours of the Brenham and Bryan campus libraries beginning on
Wednesday, February 3rd through February 5th. These tours will offer Blinn students in all disciplines of study a basic
introduction to library resources and services. After touring the
facility, a demonstration of the library website will be given in our instructional classroom. The goal of
the tour, lasting approximately 30 minutes, will be to make our
students feel comfortable in coming to the library and asking for help. Students
do not need to make an appointment prior to a tour,
but proof of identity is required if your instructor is giving extra credit for attending a tour. A blue ticket may also be issued, if required by an instructor.
In-depth instructional classes are provided throughout
the semester, in collaboration with faculty members.. Instruction may vary from finding resources through the
Blinn College Library Online Catalog, locating scholarly journal
articles in our periodical databases, or evaluating the relevance and
authority of information. Classes will be taught
in our instructional classroom with hands on activities of skills
acquired. The teaching librarian will be giving an assessment of skills
taught at the end of each instructional session. Instruction request
forms are available online through the library website.
