ENGL 2341 - Forms of Literature Library Research (Tony Procell): Library Video Tutorials

Library Video Modules for English Literature Library Research

The EPCC College Library Instruction Video Modules aim to build information competency in students and use the Association of Colleges and Research Libraries (ACRL) Framework for Information Literacy in Higher Education as a guide for all library instruction activities. As defined by the American Library Association (ALA), Information literacy is a set of abilities requiring individuals to “recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information.” This library instruction also supports EPCC Institutional Student Learning Outcome # 2 - Critical Thinking: Students will engage in creative and critical thinking, innovation, and inquiry and demonstrate analysis, evaluation, and synthesis of information. 

Below you will find self-paced modules to develop your information literacy competency skills and learn how to use the EPCC Libraries resources.

If you have any additional questions after reviewing the modules please contact Lorely Ambriz at lambriz@epcc.edu or (915) 831-8886.
