"Library tutorials". I designed five online tutorials that are still on the York Library website. These tutorials help users (1) find books at that library, (2) get books from other cooperating libraries, (3) read a citation, (4) use Interlibrary Loan, and (5) access library e-resources from off-campus. June 2013.
