Off campus librarians travel to all branch campus sites to work with your class on searching electronic databases, accessing full text journal articles, locating books and all types of research materials. You can arrange for a librarian to visit your class in one of three ways:

1. Contact Michele Behr
2. Fill out the request form at: http://www.wmich.edu/library/forms/instruct_off.php
3. Request a session through the branch campus at which you are teaching. The Faculty Data Sheet you fill out when preparing your class has a section where you can indicate that you’d like a presentation from a librarian.
