Library Services for International Partners
The following resources have been created to support Fort Hays State University's international partner programs with library services and resources anywhere in the world.
Quick Access Homepage
Use search.library.fhsu.edu as an alternative to the library homepage for faster loading times and direct access to search the library's electronic resources.
Tutorials and Guides for Students
Several bilingual tutorials have been created to help teach research and information literacy skills abroad.
- The English/Chinese Library Guide features bilingual text and videos to provide information about how to search the library, cite sources, and avoid plagiarism.
- This interactive English/Chinese APA citation tutorial guides students through the citation process and several practice examples. The tutorial link can be included in any Blackboard course or sent directly to students. At the end of the tutorial, students receive a certificate of completion to allow for simple grading.
- A self-paced bilingual tutorial for UNIV 105 curriculum at Sias is available in the Master Blackboard shell for the course. These tutorials would also be beneficial to use in other Sias and SNU courses that have a research-based assignment. Please contact refserv@fhsu.edu to request a copy of Bb Module.
