ALCTS needs knowledgeable instructors from a variety of libraries to teach additional sections of its popular web courses Fundamentals of Electronic Resources Acquisitions, Fundamentals of Collection Development and Management, and Fundamentals of Preservation.

 

Please visit the ALCTS Fundamentals Web Course web page for additional information about the current courses offered.

 

Courses are provided over a four- or six-week period. They are composed of self-paced modules and include interaction with the instructors and classmates. The courses are already developed and ready to use; no additional editing is needed. Instructors would participate in evaluations and have the opportunity to recommend updates to the course content as needed. A modest honorarium is awarded to course instructors.

 

To ensure consistency of instruction and a high value experience for participants, course instructor training has ordinarily had several components:

 

1. Take the course as a participant.
2. Repeat the course shadowing the instructor, with access to the instructor interface.
3. Co-teach the course with an experienced instructor.

 

How to Apply:
If you are interested in becoming an instructor for the ALCTS Fundamentals Web Courses, please complete the online instructor application: https://alctsprogram.wufoo.com/forms/pttvgeb1kow32f/
