LEARNING RESOURCES SERVICES
The mission of the information resource center and library is to support the college in providing the best educational programs possible, to provide assistance to faculty and students in accessing information both at the College and at other remote sites, to provide opportunities for the student to learn from many different formats of information, and to provide life skills in access to information and resources. The Information Resource Centers at the Kissimmee, campuses provide a physical and virtual library support system to all students and faculty whether they are attending classes on campus or taking courses online.
The web-based catalog serves as a central access search tool for print and electronic resources, including e-Journal and eBooks, Net-Library, videos, and print materials. Catalog entries provide a Table of Contents, links to full text and front covers where available, making it very convenient for the researcher to determine which title is appropriate. From the web-based catalog, circulating materials may be put on hold, requested for delivery, or an inter-library loan requested. Hebron International College has a Learning Resource Area (LRA) where students or faculty can go to do research, prepare for classes or complete homework. Along with reference books, general books, magazines, journals and periodicals, the LRA houses eight (8) computers with access to the Internet. The center is opened to students, faculty, and staff during school hours. Information is provided to students regarding public libraries near the school and online resources recommended for research purpose, such as WebMD, Nurse.com, Health Central, CDC Health Topics A to Z, The Merck Manual, MayoClinic.com, Discovery Health, and program specific sites. The school also participates in LIRN (the Library and Information Resource Network) to provide safe and reliable sources. Instructions on how to access LIRN are posted in the Learning Resource Area. As a result of the emphasis on electronic delivery of information, high priority is placed on training by the library faculty. Information literacy programs and training in the new technologies are offered through scheduled classes, handouts, drop-in sessions, personal appointments, or chat.
