Primo Discovery is Live!
The new Primo discovery library research platform is live! Primo can be accessed from the Library's myLakeland homepage, and librarians are available all semester long for tutorials. We are also excited to announce that more new library digital tools will be coming to Lakeland this year, including a mobile app, an institutional repository called Alma D, a library book purchasing module called Rialto, and a library reading list and digital book shelf service for Blackboard called Leganto. For more details, please see the attached library presentation from Fall Conference Week!
Sign up for an information literacy class or research appointment!
Instructors can use our digital information literacy request form to schedule class sessions with reference librarians on our staff. Librarians will review how to locate, evaluate, and responsibly use information sources with your students, all criteria included in the Lakeland Learning Outcome "Uses Information Effectively." Class sessions are offered both face-to-face and online, and can be tailored to your assignments.
Need help outside of class? Students and faculty can also sign up for one-on-one research assistance appointments. Librarians will cover our new Primo discovery search and a variety of subject and resource type specific databases. One-on-one appointments are also offered face-to-face in the library and online all semester.
