Library Instruction

This certificate program is designed to help you develop an advanced level of knowledge in library instruction topics, with the opportunity to tailor the program to your needs by providing a range of courses to choose from.

The courses in the certificate grouping work as standalone courses as well, and need not be taken towards a certificate. For the certificate, the courses may be taken in any order; none have prerequisites. If you have previously taken any of the courses below and want them to count towards the certificate, let us know and we will maintain a record for you.

To earn the certificate, you must complete eight of the following courses. Courses offered by us and courses offered through Inquiring Teachers count for the certificate.
