LIBRARY/ MATERIALS ON RESERVE/ VIDEO RESERVE
SPU's Library offers collections, services and
technology, as well as space for study, research and meetings.
Research assistance is provided by librarians with subject specialties
in the sciences, humanities, religion, fine arts, social sciences,
business, education, counseling and music.
Adjunct faculty
may access library services. The SPU identification card serves
as the library card. Instructors must have budgetary approval
before arranging to rent videos or use other library services
that include fees.
Assigned class
reading materials may be placed on reserve at the reserve/media
counter. The purpose of the reserve collection is to provide access
to readings in high demand. Circulation is limited to short loan
periods. Items placed on reserve should be limited to required
reading only, with some exceptions. Reference books, and books
from another library, may not be placed on reserve. Arrangements
for videos are made with the staff member at the reserve counter.
Please allow 24 hours for processing your request.

CENTER
FOR LEARNING/ SERVICES FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES/ TIPS

consultations, learning and reading consultations, writing tutors
and other services for all students, and with special concern
for students with disabilities who need special attention.
Useful Teaching
Techniques

Select
course material early so that students and DSS have enough
time to translate them to audiotape, Braille and other large
print.
|
| * |
Make
syllabi, short assignment sheets and reading lists available
in electronic format (e.g., disk, e-mail, online). |
| * |
Face
the class when speaking. Repeat discussion questions. |
| * |
Write
key phrases and lecture outlines on the blackboard or overhead
projector. |
