If you are not teaching on campus in Grayling, you can still check out items from the Library. Call or email the Library for more information. We deliver to M-TEC or to you via the USPS. The librarians and staff are here to help you.
We have resources for students such as Citing Sources in 3 Easy Steps if you feel students need a little help or refresher on how to correctly cite. This comes in both an APA and MLA version. There is an additional module containing information on paraphrasing, direct quotations, and when to cite sources. Students who commit plagiarism can be referred to the Plagiarism Traffic School by submitting an Academic Misconduct Referral Form.

Some students may be skilled researchers, but many need a refresher - even faculty may appreciate a library update! Level the playing field for your students when they begin their projects by requesting a research skills review lesson. Contact the library to discuss areas of focus and to schedule a time.
Another way to partner with a librarian is through our embedded librarian service by having the Library offer assistance to you and your students through a library module embedded within Canvas. The customizable module could contain the following:
The embedded librarian service is available to support your students in their research assignments. Contact the library if you would like the library embedded in your course(s).
