  • Provide assistance in showing students how to locate, interpret, and use primary source materials in all formats

  • Assist in creating class exercises to analyze and discern meaning from rare materials

  • Show examples of specific types of binding, printing, formats, illustration techniques, etc.

  • Identify and locate resources to support your lecture or class session

  • Suggest collections appropriate for student research

  • Photocopy or digitize documents to be used as exemplars

  • Create a LibGuide to incorporate resources specific to your course
