These library guides and the Burke Library pages will assist you in finding articles in the library databases. I will be happy to provide further assistance with research and the books, kits, and other resources in the IRC/Education Library.
The Instructional Resource Center (IRC) is located on the 1st Floor of the Rev. Gregory F. Lucey, S.J. Administration Center. The IRC includes the Education Library, computer lab, classroom and media production room.
Our primary mission is to assist teacher education majors in the development of curriculum by selecting, providing access to, and instructing educators in the use of instructional resources and technologies.
On this website, you'll find library guides and resources corresponding with your classes (see column on the left).
