Learning Resources Centers Are Now Libraries!
by Paula Settoon
Based on recommendations from the students, faculty, and staff, the Cabinet recently decided to change the name of the
Learning Resources Center to Library. Since ancient times libraries have
been learning resources centers, and librarians have been the gate keepers of
knowledge.
Today’s librarians know that information
literacy is a skill that students need to be
successful in virtually every career. To that
end the American Library Association provides guidance and direction for librarians
to aid students in developing in what it has
defined as “a set of abilities requiring individuals to recognize when information is
needed and have the ability to locate,
evaluate, and use effectively the needed
information.” To further aid students in
their quests to achieve information literacy,
librarians at TCC Libraries develop re-
search guides for specific classes and/or
for specific subjects. To see an example of
a research guide, visit http://
guides.lrc.tulsacc.edu/content.php?
pid=38184.
TCC Librarians also teach classes and help
students one-on-one with research needs.
For more about information literacy, info lit
classes, or research guides, contact a TCC
Library near you.
