We are delighted to welcome Brittany Dudek, our new Instructional Online Librarian for Colorado
Community Colleges Online. Previously, Brittany was the Electronic Resources
Librarian for Illinois Central College in East Peoria, Illinois. Brittany
received her Masters of Library & Information Science from University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee and her B.A. from Eastern Illinois University, and she was
honored as a Library Journal 2014 Mover & Shaker.
Here’s an introduction from Brittany herself:
I’m very excited to work with
you to provide library services to your students. I’ve heard from many that
citations and plagiarism is a concern, and am working to create active
learning/interactive tutorials which will finish with a short ‘quiz’ on those
subjects that can be used in any course at any time.
Aside from the citation and plagiarism tutorials, there are many library services I can offer, and I hope you’ll take advantage of them! I’ve listed a few here, but would love to work with you to develop what your students need!
