The library staff is available to help you with any of your instruction and research needs. Never hesitate to contact the library for assistance with finding resources, paper or online. Many resources are available to assist you and your students in the pursuit of information:

PrairieCat

See what is available at Highland and 195 other northern Illinois and Iowa libraries. Request and renew books and other library materials online. Use the PrairieCat "Find Articles" tab to find articles in the library online databases.

Research consultations/ Classroom instruction

We encourage you to send your students to our staff librarians (Judy, Laura or Michael) for assistance with their research papers and projects.

We are available to come to your classrooms to discuss discipline specific resources, research instruction and other aspects of Information Literacy. We are available for library tours and demonstrations of library resources.
