The Aggie Digital Archives is a new service the library is providing to the university community. It will hold faculty publications, student projects, A&T theses and dissertations, and much more. Faculty are invited to submit books, articles, presentations, and other scholarly works that they have created for inclusion in the archive. These materials will be available permanently in the archives, and will be indexed for searching both within the university and through services like Google.

Library Instruction for Your Class
Course-related library instruction is designed to introduce students to research strategies and the basic information sources available for a particular class or subject. A librarian works with you and develops an instructional session or sessions to meet the specific needs of the class. Course-related library instruction is one of the most effective ways of teaching students to use scholarly materials and resources. This success is due to supplementing subject-oriented training received in the classroom with instruction in information resources and search techniques.
