Catawba librarian
Amanda Nash, instruction librarian at Catawba College’s Corriher-Linn-Black Library, contributed a chapter to a book released in July.
The book, called The Library Instruction Cookbook (http://www.alastore.ala.org/detail.aspx?ID=2721), contains lesson plans for teaching various research/information literacy skills and was published by the Association of College and Research Libraries.
Nash’s chapter presents a lesson that she uses regularly when teaching a general education class in Catawba’s School of Evening and Graduate Studies program. It also includes pictures of a class in Catawba Library Instruction Lab.
Nash joined the Catawba College community in 2006. She earned her bachelor of arts degree in English from Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pa., and her master of library and information science degree from the University of South Carolina in Columbia, S.C.
