The goals of this tutorial comprised of three modules are identification of various types and formats of information resources, location of these resources to meet an information need, development of search techniques, and proper evaluation of the information found.

2.      Information literacy course on Blackboard

These two modules were created to help the faculty with integrating information literacy skills into their classes and to help the students become familiar with the libraries of Delaware Tech. They show how to select, use and evaluate resources, databases and services offered by the College libraries.
