Classroom

 

Description

The Library Instruction Classroom (MOL 126) is located on the first floor of the Molstead Library in the south corner of the building. The classroom contains instructional equipment including a dual-monitor PC, WolfVision Visualizer VZ-3 document camera, digital projector and screen, DVD player, and two whiteboards, as well as a rear monitor and classroom speaker/microphone to facilitate online instruction. The 26-seat classroom is arranged around 13 work tables. The classroom can be reconfigured to accommodate instructional needs. The Library also has a portable set of 26 keyboard tablets for instruction use.

Availability

The main use of the Library Instruction Classroom is for librarian-led instruction. Classes taught by library personnel will have the highest priority and can override previously scheduled classes reserved by non-library personnel. Although the classroom may be scheduled by North Idaho College faculty for other instructional purposes, it is always with the proviso that students spend a portion of their time in library-related learning activities. Instructors may reserve MOL 126 for instructional purposes up to six, two-hour blocks per class, per semester. Please do not keep your class over the time you have scheduled. The classroom is only available during the library’s regular operating hours.

Scheduling

Email the Reference and Instruction Librarian, or phone ext. 3253 to request a librarian-led instruction session.

When arriving to use the Library Instruction Classroom, please proceed to the Information Desk to have the room unlocked. We also ask that you contact the staff working at the Information or Checkout Desks to report any problems with the condition of the room or the equipment.
