Queen’s Library

Subject liaison librarians work with faculty to ensure that the library's collections support the curriculum needs of departments and faculties at Queen's. Consult the Library's collection development policies or speak with your liaison librarian to discuss the information resource needs for your courses.

Subject liaison librarians also work with faculty to provide curriculum integrated library instruction. Consult with your liaison librarian to discuss how information literacy and library instruction might be integrated into your courses. Information on developing effective library assignments is also available online.

In addition, liaison librarians maintain subject guides to help students uncover appropriate scholarly information resources. Please consider including a link to relevant subject guides on your course syllabi.
