Rio Hondo College Library Instruction Request

Please complete this form to request a library instruction session for your class. Allow at least one week between the time you submit this form and your requested date. A librarian will contact you to confirm your instruction appointment.

Please note:

1. Library instruction sessions work best for students after you have approved their research topics.

2. It is important to us librarians to have the instructor present during the session. We find that when you are present during library instruction sessions, students tend to pay more attention, ask questions, and take notes. You will also be in the best position to answer questions related to their assignment, emphasize certain points that come up during the session, and ask the librarian to address other pertinent topics.
