If you are following the Common Syllabus then the best time to request library instruction is sometime during week 2-10. Library instruction usually takes a whole class period (50-60 minutes depending on the length of your class).
Why do I have to bring my class to the library for instruction?
Short Answer: It's required!
Long Answer: The course criteria for Rhetorical Arts was voted on and approved by LMU faculty. The course criteria for Rhetorical Arts states, "Assign at least 10% of the final course grade on the basis of information literacy with a librarian-led workshop and one or more course-integrated assignments."
