The Evolution and Reaffirmation of a Library Orientation Program in an Academic Research Library.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Du Mont, Mary J.; Schloman, Barbara F. – Reference Services Review, 1995
As a result of a survey and cost analysis, it was found that audiotaped tour programs are the most successful means for introducing college freshmen to library physical layout and basic finding tools. This is proof of the continuing feasibility of the audiotaped tour's role as a foundation of library instruction. (JMV)
