For Faculty & Staff
Library Instruction & Class Visits
To schedule a library orientation, information literacy instruction and/or a class visit at NWACC’s Main Campus in Bentonville, contact Rachel Ackerman at 619-4246 or email rackerman@nwacc.edu. To visit Regional Technology Center Library in Fayetteville, contact Sarah Santos at
479-444-3060 x107 or email ssantos1@nwacc.edu. Advance notice is appreciated as available time slots tend to fill up quickly.
For optimal results, please provide a copy of your assignment and/or share your specific goals so we can customize the presentation to suit your needs. Due to limited space in the library and the tendency for large groups to disrupt students who are studying, we try to provide most instruction in your classroom or in a computer lab. There are times, however, when a class visit to the library is the most appropriate approach. We can only accommodate one class at a time, so please avoid conflicts by scheduling your visits in advance.

Copyright Assistance
Do you have copyrighted material that you would like to use for reserves or classroom handouts? If there isn't time to request written permission from the publisher, try Copyright Clearing House. They quickly do all the work for a small fee.
Instructors' Reserves
Reserve materials are usually classified as "library use only" and are provided to the library by instructors. The reserve materials (books, videos, CD-ROMs, articles*, etc.) are located on shelves and in file drawers behind the Circulation Desk. To make arrangements, instructors may visit the library and fill out a Reserve Request Form. For questions about Instructors' Reserves located in the library, call Genny Olson at 619-4307 or email golson@nwacc.edu.
*Please note that it may be more convenient, less expensive for students (since copy machines are coin operated) and more environmentally-friendly to post resources such as articles online in My Courses, faculty websites or Web CT. For instructions in using persistent links to EbscoHost (or other library database) full-text articles and citations, contact Rachel Ackerman at 619-4246 or email rackerman@nwacc.edu. To post other types of documents online, contact Pat Kelly at 619-2220 or email pkelly@nwacc.edu for assistance.
