Request Form
Library Safari is a workshop designed for students enrolled in UNIV 100 - The Student in the University, and is especially well suited to first semester Letters and Sciences students. This workshop is taught by volunteer library staff and graduate students.
UNIV 100 - The Student in the University is a 1-credit course designed to help students make a successful transition from high school to college, be introduced to an academic environment, discover a wealth of campus resources, and more.
Along these lines, the aim of Library Safari is to help students conquer their library anxiety while at the same time gaining an appreciation for the myriad of library services and resources made available to them. A large and complex academic library system can be intimidating to some first year students, so Library Safari aims to provide a comfortable and fun atmosphere in which to learn 'how the library works.' Knowing how to effectively use the University Libraries will lead to academic success.
| All the Library Safari exercises are designed around the themes and issues discussed in the first year book. |
Colleagues, The fall 2008 request period for Library Safari has come to a close. For those instructors teaching UNIV 100 in spring 2009, please revisit this page in January to request a workshop.
