I'd like to gather some informal information concerning the extent to which
art history graduate student library instruction is performed by librarians.
We at Duke are trying to determine whether we're behind or ahead of the norm
in BI for graduate students.  Would colleagues who teach introductory
classes to graduate students in art history please respond to the BRIEF
following questions (to me personally).  Names or schools will not be used
in summary reports.

Many, many thanks!


1. How long is your course instruction? [number of sessions, frequency of
sessions, time length of each session]

2. Is your course required by the department or voluntary?

3. Is course credit issued?

4. Are you alone responsible for the content, do you team teach with a
faculty member, or other?

5. How would you estimate the time (in per cent) that you devote to each of
these areas (you may combine these areas or skip those your don't treat):
___ reference bibliography (books in your reference collection every grad
should know about
___ stacks material (books in your stacks that are "must know" for grad
students"
___ periodical index searching (both electronic and hard copy)
___ basic www instruction (judging web pages, etc.)
___ www art reference sources
___ other


6. How are the students evaluated for successful completion of your course?
___ written exam passed
___ total attendance
___ sufficient attendance
___ librarian satisfaction of individual students
___ other

7. How long have you/your institution been offering this instruction
(years)?

8.  Other comments.
