We offer a suite of individual tutorials on common library skills and research needs. Each tutorial is available as a CourseDen module that you can download and import into your course, so you can pick and choose the lessons that are the highest priority for your course. Length varies by topic, but a normal library instruction session would cover one to two of these topics. Contact your subject librarian for more information, or to discuss developing a tutorial or other online learning object for your discipline.
