Here is an introduction to Super3 created for the young learner! Barbara Rehmeyer uses a voice over slide technology to speak directly to a young student audience while she carefully describes the Super3’s stages Plan, Do, and Review.  She provides relevant examples for each step.

We work with students, faculty, and staff to fulfill information needs, make purchasing decisions for collection development, conduct research, and sometimes even fix a paper jam disrupting the “flow of life” in the computer lab. Each work day finds academic librarians experiencing new and interesting opportunities for teaching, research, and interaction. While our job responsibilities are diverse, these activities have one thing in common – the goal for each is collaboration.
