Library instruction plays a large role in the LRC's commitment to prepare students in navigating the information and becoming lifelong learners. Piedmont Community College is a teaching institution where librarians teach formal classes in: 

• General library orientation: how to find and evaluate information in the library

• Research specific instruction: how to find and evaluate information on a selected research using the library and Internet

• Tours: how to locate the resources in the library 

Faculty members are free to request a class with one of the librarians for general library orientation, subject-specific instruction, or tours. You must sign up at least two week prior to the requested date for your session. This allows the librarian to deliver the best service possible for your class.
