Where we foster excellence in education that challenges students of every background to develop their intellect, character, and abilities; to assist students in achieving their educational and career goals; and to be responsive to the greater community.
Library faculty can assist you and your students in developing research topics and finding and using information to support student coursework. We will tailor the content and format of instruction to the students' needs. Presently, instruction is available through live Zoom sessions, pre-recorded videos, and other types of research guides.
Email library.reference@imperial.edu to schedule a reference appointment via Zoom with a librarian.
If you can't visit our Zoom room, you may schedule a time to meet with a librarian using this form.
Schedule Research Consultation
The Course Reserve System allows for the borrowing of required course materials. Instructors may request that their course materials be added to our Reserve Collection using the Course Reserve Request Form. Many textbooks are extremely expressive, placing materials on reserve can help students more easily afford the cost of attending college.
Open Educational Resources (OER) are high-quality educational materials that not only reduce or eliminate textbook costs, but can be tailored to the needs of both faculty and students. To learn more about OER, find out what your fellow faculty are doing, and to get support in discovering and adopting OER for your own students, visit IVC's OER site.
