About Library Instruction at Transy: Library Instruction Program Mission

The Transylvania University Library Instruction Program is learner-centered and takes an active engagement approach to teach information literacy concepts and educational technology tools, resources, and platforms. The library instruction program was developed and is updated with consideration for the diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and learning styles of our students. The Transylvania University Library Instruction program works across all departments and academic programs to support our entire campus community. Transy Library designs instruction that focuses on the learner’s needs while fostering critical evaluation skills in the use of research and technology resources. Library instructors teach and encourage students to take a hands-on approach to research and use of technology thereby engaging students in applying information literacy and educational technology concepts critically and ethically in their own personal and academic endeavors.
