A Library Research Manual for College of Wooster Students with a Specific Learning Disability.
Gustafson, Julia Chance
This introduction to the library system at the College of Wooster in Ohio provides pertinent advice and information that is designed to enable the student with a specific learning disability to become an effective library user. Following the introductory chapter, which includes descriptions of the audience for whom the manual is written and how it is to be used, the following topics are covered: (1) library environment strategies for specific personality preferences; (2) learning locations in the library; (3) asking for assistance; (4) finding information and taking notes; (5) understanding call number symbols and finding sources; (6) developing an efficient library search strategy; and (7) allowing enough time for library research. Four appendixes include worksheets for students; a discussion of the characteristics of persons with specific learning disabilities; a check list for determining the preferred learning styles of individuals; and a bibliography of recommended readings and other related research sources.
