As a Writing 311 student, you are invited to attend a library workshop with a subject librarian who has expertise in the subject area of your research topic. Later this semester, you will have an assignment to synthesize research on a topic of your choice. This workshop will teach you how to find the research for that assignment. Workshops are 50 minutes long.
Below are the steps for successfully attending a library workshop for your advanced writing class. Notice the dates for registering, receiving email, and attending.
If you have questions at any time, please contact us at library_instruction@byu.edu.
Registration is open between June 26-July 9. Register for your workshop here. You will then be scheduled with a subject librarian based on the major you select and the available times you indicate.
A NOTE ABOUT YOUR MAJOR: The registration page will ask for your major. You will be assigned a subject librarian based on which major you select in the dropdown menu. Before you do so, consider the following:
On Tuesday, July 11, after 5:00 PM, you will receive a notification email at your BYU student Outlook account (@byu.edu) with your workshop assignment and details on how to attend.
If a workshop could not be scheduled during the available times you indicated when you registered, you will instead receive a notification email with a link where you can choose an already-scheduled workshop or schedule a 1-1 session with a subject librarian.
If you need to change the major you selected so you can meet with a librarian in a different field, please email us as soon as possible at library_instruction@byu.edu.
To access your student @byu.edu account, do the following:
If you registered and did not receive any notification email at your student @byu.edu account, please email us at library_instruction@byu.edu.
Workshops will be held between July 13-20.
If you cannot attend the workshop you were scheduled for, have no fear! Your notification email has instructions on how to choose a different workshop time or how to schedule a 1-1 visit with the subject librarian. Do this as soon as possible.
If you missed your originally assigned workshop, you will receive an email notification with instructions on how to choose a different workshop time or how to schedule a 1-1 visit with the subject librarian. Do this as soon as possible.
If you did not register by July 9, you can still sign up for a scheduled workshop or schedule a 1-1 visit with your subject librarian by going to instruction.lib.byu.edu on or after July 12. We recommend you don't wait to sign up; some workshops are held earlier in the workshop period than others.
