WELCOME TO LIB-GUIDES!
In the library we have created LibGuides, or subject guides, that pull together all types of information about a particular subject or course of study. The Library LibGuides contain information about both our library's resources (books, databases, multimedia, etc) and online resources that are relevant to a particular subject.
LibGuides can be customized for your class, the guide can be linked directly to your Google classroom.
LibGuides give your students the best resources for their needs and can help to focus the student on good resources rather than an open Google search.
