WSU Libraries resources

WSU Libraries staff members have built a library guide about I Am Malala that includes a list of key names, events, and concepts/ideas for each chapter.

They are also preparing a guide for residence hall staff listing types of activities and information sessions available at libguides.libraries.wsu.edu/reslife. A request form is available at www.wsulibs.wsu.edu/library-instruction/schedule-activity.

Libraries will teach information literacy sessions to English Composition courses (using the Common Reading as needed) and to Roots of Contemporary Issues students; for the latter, a set of online tutorials will be available to aid in the completion of four Library Research Assignments.

Workshops are offered on a number of topics, as explained at libraries.wsu.edu/library-instruction/classes-on-demand.
