General Information:
The Cline Library is open to the Northern Arizona community including school groups. Teachers who are looking to provide their own physical tour of the library are welcome to bring their class on to NAU campus but should be fully aware of and comply with the campus policy regarding Supervision of Non-Student Minors. Additionally, we encourage school groups to make use of our interactive and informative virtual tour which can be accessed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on any internet connected device.
Teachers who wish to request an orientation, workshop, or program related to the Cline Library’s creation spaces and services should fill out our Experiential Learning program request form.
Teachers looking to partner with our Special Collections and Archives department to cultivate students’ abilities to think critically and to contextualize, investigate and authenticate historical and cultural resources may use the SCA Instruction Request Form.
If you are looking for generalized instruction on library databases, we encourage to visit our robust research guides and How to guides expertly created by our subject librarians.
