Library Info for Faculty

The NCC Library is proud to support teaching and learning at the college. For a personal review of the library resources and services available to you as an NCC faculty member, please contact Library Director Fran Keenan.

eBooks - another scholarly resource - but not peer-reviewed!

Most NCC eBooks are from academic publishers and qualify as scholarly resources. Also, the vast majority of our newest books are eBooks. To see what's available, browse the collection. To search for a book on specific topic,  search all ebooks at the same time in NCC Library OneSearch on library homepage. (Choose eBooks tab).

Note: NCC eBooks are scholarly resources although they are not "peer-reviewed." The peer-review filter on library site limits search results to  journal articles; it will eliminate eBooks.

To use an eBook -- in whole or in part--in Canvas, cut and paste the "Permalink" into the course.

Library Instruction for Your Class

Fran Keenan, the NCC librarian, can come to your classroom (virtual or physical) and talk about using online library resources for research papers and assignments. Please submit this form at least one week before you would like her to visit and provide her with information about the assignment so she can tailor her instruction.

She is also available to test drive assignments or create a research guide for your course.
