 LIBBIs,
or Library student workshops, are designed to help
you be a successful student, who also develops lifelong information literacy skills--the ability to define, retrieve, evaluate and use information ethically
and legally. Learn to find, manage and optimize information.
LIBBIs cover research essentials using ORU Library resources and services
and are intended to support your research efforts. There are proficiency workshops, course and subject related workshops, and workshops covering various
topics, resources and/or skills. Most
LIBBIs are 50 or 30 minute sessions; Composition 102 and 303 LIBBIs are 1 hour and 15 minutes. To attend a LIBBI you just sign up,
and then show up on time in LIL. Use the tabs above to view the schedules and details. Additional sessions may be listed on the sign-up
pages in Vision.
| Location: |
Library Instructional Lab (LIL), LRC-4th floor behind the bound periodicals area. |
| Who Can Attend: |
Some LIBBIs are optional and open to all students, while others are restricted to and/or a requirement of a course. For
example, LIBBI-499ILL is an optional workshop available to all senior paper students while LIBBI-102COM Parts 1 and 2 are two required sessions for Composition
102 students. |
| Sign-Up: |
You sign up in VISION. See the Sign-up Instructions
tab (above). Sign-up will be possible up to 30 minutes prior to the session. Note: Once you are signed up, if you need to change to a different date
and time, just sign-up for a different session and your name is automatically moved from the previous session to the new one. |
 LIL is equipped
with computers so that each participant will have hands-on training. Space is limited to 30 students in each workshop, or LIBBI, so sign up early. Once
a session is filled it will be greyed
out from
the list on the Vision sign-up page. Workshops begin promptly. Have your NOVELL login and make sure it works prior to attending the LIBBI session. Composition
102 and 303 students also need their D2L login.
Please
inquire at the Reference
Desk, LRC-4th floor, or call 918.495.6887 if you have any questions
Composition 102 Students,
How do you start research? Where do you find scholarly articles? What is an easy way to manage information? You are required to attend two library sessions,
a Part 1 and 2, that will answer these questions and cover the basics to get started on and complete research assignments with ease and efficiency. Each
session is 1 hour 15 minutes.
