Staff at the Red River College Library have recently completed revision and makeover of our collection of guides. Now, with great pleasure, we would like to present our new and improved guides!
But, what are these guides, you might be wondering?
What are Guides?
Guides are like micro sites; web pages designed with a consistent layout displaying topical information about a specific subject. They are created by library staff to help students with their course work. Guides don’t necessarily give you the answers but point you in the right direction to the find the answers. Guides are meant to be supplementary information. They are a gathering of suggested resources such as books from the library’s collection, ebooks, media, websites, databases, and any other helpful information found along the way.
The Library has a variety of guides for different programs within the college such as culinary, nursing, library tech studies, marketing, and more. Guides will be updated and be created as needs arise, so check back regularly.
Locating our Guides
The “Guides” tab can be found at the top of the Red River College Library website home page.
