SCF Librarians are available for consultation. Chat with us in Teams and we can discuss specific resources to support teaching and learning, development of assignments that support information fluency, and the use of technology to enhance the discovery of knowledge.
We offer instruction in both asynchronous and synchronous (SCF Live) modalities. Please see our 2020 Menu below.
As SCF employees, faculty also have access to our collections of popular and recreational readings (books, ebooks, and audiobooks), free subscriptions to electronic magazines (Flipster database,) DVDs and streaming films (Feature Films database), and many other resources for your personal interests.
Following the State College of Florida, Manatee-Sarasota's return to campus guidelines, the SCF Librarians offer opportunities for Library Orientations and Library Instruction classes in different modalities, as follows.
Please select a modality, topics, and place your request as indicated below.
If you have questions, please contact your librarian-liaison.
