Library
Learning Center
In the summer of 2000 the Galvin Library was awarded a $121,000 grant
from the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) through the Illinois
State Library to establish a community program to develop opportunities
for residents through enhanced information skills. The funds were
used to purchase workstations, software, and furniture for an instruction
room in the Library. The Galvin Library staff has developed a number
of workshops for area residents, focusing on school teachers, librarians,
administrators, counselors, and students as well as other professionals in
the area such as librarians from public libraries and members of
professional associations.
Following the LSTA funding, IIT remodeled the instruction room in the
library. It was recently completed in 2001 and is now available for
classroom instruction. When not in use for instruction by Galvin
Library staff, IIT faculty may schedule the room for classes by accessing
the request form or
contacting Nahla Soliman . Please read our
LLC
Scheduling Policy for more detail.
If you would like to schedule library instruction in the
classroom, please call Jeanne Link at 7-3595 or email at link@iit.edu.
