Libraries HomeClassroom in Special Collections and University Archives Ready for Use
May 6, 2009
If you're a UO faculty member, instructor, or GTF who values teaching your students how to use primary source materials in their research and study, the library's Special Collections and University Archives (SCUA) now has a state-of-the-art classroom you can reserve when your class needs access to primary materials. SCUA staff members can also assist you in the classroom when primary sources are being used.
The Special Collections and University Archives Classroom, located at the east end of the Paulson Reading Room on the second floor of Knight Library, can accommodate up to 30 students and is equipped with everything you need for instruction: secure and abundant space for working with primary documents, book snakes and cradles, and a full suite of multimedia hardware and software.
To reserve the classroom for primary source instructional sessions, contact Heather Briston, 346-1899, or send an e-mail with requested time and date to spcinstruction@uoregon.edu. Reservations should be made at least two weeks in advance of the class session.
For more information on how SCUA's staff can help you use primary sources in your teaching and research, visit http://libweb.uoregon.edu/speccoll/instruction.html or contact a SCUA staff member in the Paulson Reading Room, 346-3068, spcinstruction@uoregon.edu.
The Special Collections and University Archives Classroom was made possible with generous support from the Margaret Woodard Estate and the Paulson Investment Company Endowment Fund.
