Library Instruction Request

Thank you for your interest in scheduling a library instruction session for your class. Faculty librarians teach a large number of classes at PCC’s three campuses, centers, and worksites. Due to staff and space demands, librarians reserve the right to limit instruction to one session per section per term. We require at least one week’s notice to schedule and prepare for your class. For statistical purposes and to best prepare our collaboration with you, we ask all faculty requestors to complete this form.
