Faculty/Instructor Support
Resources and services that may be of particular interest to faculty members.
Teaching Support
-
NCSU librarians will work with you
to provide library orientations, assist in creating research assignments, and
create course web pages that help students learn to find, evaluate, and use
information.
-
If you have specific resources that you want to make easily available
to all students in your classes, consider putting the information on reserve.
Consult with Reserves staff to learn about options for making course material
available electronically.
-
Reserve the Mini-Theater for class viewing of films. Seating capacity is 38.
Research Support
-
A growing collection of citations and full text of scholarly works by NC State faculty members, graduate students, and research staff.
-
Contact the reference librarian specializing in your subject area for research assistance.
-
Faculty members at N.C. State may apply for the use of a single or shared research study room, assigned on a semester basis. These studies are located on floors two through nine of the D. H. Hill Library's bookstacks tower.
-
Set up saved searches in library databases to alert you when new
resources are available in your research area(s).
Library Materials
-
Communicate with the collection manager in your subject area about your areas of special interest for research and teaching. The collection manager can keep an eye out for new materials that can be obtained to support your research area.
-
Complete this form to request a specific item. This information will automatically go to the collection manager who orders materials for your subject area.
-
If you need a particular item that is not owned by NCSU Libraries, you can request it through Tripsaver, and the Interlibrary Services will request the material from another library for your use.
-
NCSU Libraries is part of a library consortium that also includes the libraries of Duke University, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and North Carolina Central University. Throught Search TRLN, you can do a single catalog search across all four libraries. You can then make a Tripsaver request for an item, or use your NCSU Faculty ID card to borrow materials directly from these libraries.
-
Through NCSU Libraries' membership in the Center for Research Libraries (CRL), NCSU students and scholars also have access to the Center's significant research collections. Information on CRL holdings may be obtained by searching CRL's online catalog or browsing CRL's topic guides.
