- An Individualized Library Orientation Program in Mercer County Community College Library; Curriculum Development. Sim, Yong Sup (Sam) College Freshmen College Libraries Community Colleges Higher Education Individualized Instruction Library Instruction Library Services Library Skills Orientation Two Year Colleges A three-part, 50 minute, library orientation program was designed for freshmen at Mercer County (New Jersey) Community College. The first unit was a 20 minute tour and demonstration of library equipment. The second unit introduced students to the card catalog and the subject organization of books. In the third unit, students learned how to use periodical indexes to locate specific information. A rationale, a list of objectives, specific learning activities, and a posttest were developed for each unit. Learning activities provided a choice of individualized materials--print, visual, audio, or a combination. Librarians, counselors, English teachers, and students evaluated the program, found it successful, and made recommendations for its further use and improvement. (LS)
