Place the title on course reserve by filling out the form found at libguides.bridgewater.edu/coursereserves or by emailing circulation@bridgewater.edu. If we don't already have the book in our library's collection, we are happy to purchase a copy for the reserves room.

Have a couple of journal articles or book chapters that you'd like your students to read that are currently in print? Email ill@bridgewater.edu to arranged a time to drop off your physical materials. Vickie will do her best to work with you scheudule to get the scans done for you when you need them.

Once you've connected with Vickie, you can drop your book or journal off at the Circulation Desk, and we'll be happy to do the scanning for you and email PDFs directly to you for uploading to Canvas.

Arrange for a librarian to visit with your students to discuss research and information literacy topics. Library instruction is tailored to the needs of your students based on the assignments that you have created for them.

If you don't have course time for a library session, Learning Services is able to create course-specific research guides, asynchronous Canvas modules, and instructional videos. Email research@bridgewater.edu for more information or visit the Learning Services page here.
