FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Hershey, PA – May 31, 2013–IGI Global, an international publishing company specializing in applied research publications on all aspects of information technology management, is pleased to announce the June edition of the Online Symposium Series.

On Thursday, June 27th at 2:00 EDT, Mary Anne Hansen and Sheila Bonnand, reference librarians at Montana State University, will share their experiences in expanding instructional services by adding synchronous library instruction to better serve online students and faculty across the globe. This presentation will discuss how these librarians have utilized web conferencing for the past four years to embed interactive, high-touch library instruction in online courses. This effort was launched to provide and insure that students taking classes online are afforded the opportunities for library instruction just like students in traditional face-to-face courses on campus.

This symposium is based on Hansen and Bonnand’s chapter “Embedded Librarians: Delivering Synchronous Library Instruction and Research Assistance to Meet Needs of Distance Students and Faculty” in Interactivity in E-Learning: Case Studies and Frameworks.
