Our
Mission:
In
support of Three Rivers Community College's mission and
purpose as stated in the college catalog, the Learning
Resource Centers provide a well-organized collection of
high-quality materials and services in an efficient, fiscally
responsible and timely manner. The ultimate goal of the
Learning Resource Centers is to instruct and prepare users to
be life-long learners.
General
Information:
Both
sites contain books, periodicals, pamphlets, and audiovisual
materials for use by both the College community and the
general public. As a
member of the NEW and IMPROVED Online Catalog Libris,
(Library Resources Information System for Connecticut
Community Colleges) students, faculty, staff and the community
now have 24 hour access to the catalog seven days a week via
the World Wide Web.
The
Learning Resource Centers offer instructional programs on
using the library, audiovisual materials, conducting research
and writing term papers.
Instruction is available for both groups and
individuals upon request.
The Library Instruction program is emphasized so that the
Learning Resource Center is also a teaching unit in the
college, which will provide an unlimited interdisciplinary
approach to knowledge. Its purpose is to help create a richer
learning environment in which students learn to do independent
study with individualized instruction. In addition, the
Learning Resource Centers provide computers and audiovisual
equipment for general use.
