ECC librarians provide reference and instruction in support of the curriculum and other information needs of the ECC community. Combining the resources of a traditional print reference collection, online reference tools, and thirteen databases, we offer one-on-one help with information needs as well as long-term research for both faculty and students. As your students' research advocates, we help them develop lifelong information literacy skills.
We assist with:
- topic choice and search strategies
- identifying and access books and articles, using the catalog and databases
- understanding the different attributes and purposes of scholarly and popular information
- making good website choices
- proper citations of materials
