Faculty librarians welcome the opportunity to ease student
transition into the university. To this end, Blackwell Library
encourages Delmarva public or private school instructors to
arrange class visits to the library, so that students may become
familiar with research in an academic setting.
Before contacting the library to schedule a visit, please
read the following policies/procedures:
