Information Skills for Students
Are your students going straight to Google for their searching?
Students are not all equal in the skills and effectiveness they use when conducting research. They may not be familiar with advanced search strategies when looking for information on the Internet or in journal databases, or may be uncertain which resources would be most effective for a specific topic. If you’d like, contact your liaison or call Craig Smith at 1-417-873-7339 or csmith@drury.edu to talk about what you’d like your students to know about research, from basic to advanced levels.
Interlibrary Loan
If you cannot find what you’re looking for you may contact the Interlibrary Loan department at illdesk@drury.edu or fill out the ILL form online.
