Early College High School/Dual Credit-High School Librarians and the ACC Library: ACC Library Resources for My Course

ACC Librarians have created web pages for your subject area and courses. Below you will find:

• Subject Guides: Library resources, recommended websites, research help for your subject area such as Accounting
• Class Guides: Provide the details of an assignment for your course, and a librarian will build a page to support your student's work, or adapt an existing guide to better meet your needs. See examples for your discipline and others
• Library Guides: Getting started with college research assignments, helpful instructions for your students, how to cite sources 
• Information Plus Guides: Technology guides, local information guides and resources for special populations at ACC

We can custom-create a guide for your Subject area or Class- just ask us! 

Example: How to Find Literary Criticism:

Imagine how well a custom course-specific guide can connect your students with the resources they need.

Here are some examples of Class Guides:

• CHEM 1111- NRG - Spring 2014
• VNG Project on Nursing and Culture
• EDUC 1300

Contact your subject librarian or one of your campus librarians to request a new class guide.
