Our libguide collection has grown again, with the addition of a guide about Videos for Education. It will help you find educational videos both about teaching and for use in your classrooms. We'd be very interested in feedback about whether these are useful - so please email doucinfo@ucalgary.ca with any comments or suggestions.

Another new libguide just added - Lesson Planning Resources.

Check out our new resource guides. Tammy Flanders has created three new libguides: Children's Literature, Readers & Reading and Media Education/Digital Literacy.

We welcome your suggestions for new resources, or your ideas about how we can serve you better. To suggest items you'd like us to purchase please use this form. Other ideas? Email Barb Brydges at brydges@ucalgary.ca.

The Doucette Library now has a blog! Called Apples with Many Seeds (did you know that’s the meaning of pomegranate?) it’s full of the seeds of great ideas about resources that can provide inspiration for your lessons.
