A Typical Day at the Library   

You can usually find me teaching information literacy skills to students in LIBA, English, Humanities, MENA, and the Modern Languages, both in the classroom and in one-on-one research appointments. I love helping students and faculty track down the perfect sources for their projects. When I'm not in the classroom, I'm looking for new teaching methods to share with the other instruction librarians at Wofford and assessing our information literacy classes to make sure that we're doing the best job we can to support our students.
