Library Services for Faculty

Library/Faculty Liaison Program

The liaison program pairs a librarian with each academic department or program to facilitate the selection of library materials, inform faculty about new library resources and services, and assist them with their instructional needs.
Research Instruction We offer practical instructional sessions for classes and individual consultations for students. Research Skills for L&C Students lists the necessary skills that students should acquire by the time they graduate.
Request Materials for Purchase Requests from faculty members are a major source for building the library collection.
Course Reserves Course reserve service provides controlled, ready access to materials required for Lewis & Clark classes. Many items, such as journal articles, book chapters, and audio selections, are made available through electronic reserve.
Borrowing Privileges Faculty and staff may keep books checked out from Watzek Library until the end of the semester, audio-visual materials for 14 days and periodicals for 2 days. Materials may also be borrowed through Summit, although different rules apply.
Interlibrary Loan Interlibrary Loan (ILL) provides access to materials not available at Watzek or through Summit.
Article Delivery Watzek staff will scan journal articles and book chapters available in Watzek's print or microform collections for faculty.
Your Library Account View due dates of your items borrowed, renew materials, & check the status of requested Summit and interlibrary loan requests.
Reference Service Reference service is available at the library reference desk during regular hours in person, via e-mail, or phone at 503-768-7285.
Research Consultation Service Individual research consultation sessions with librarians are offered to faculty, students and staff.
Visual Resources Collection The College Visual Resources Collection contains over 50,000 slides and hundreds of digital images of the art and architecture.
