The DIU library staff are happy to provide research instruction for your class and can work with you to highlight resources which you feel are most pertinent to your area of focus. Due to the hybrid structure of most classes, we find it generally works best for us to come to your classroom to demonstrate online resources, then follow up with a physical tour of our library for onsite students if desired.
