Library Services for Faculty of Distance Education

Gonzaga’s Adjunct Faculty are entitled to library privileges similar to those enjoyed by our full-time, on-campus faculty.   

LIBRARY SUPPORT SERVICES

 The library staff at Foley Library is dedicated to helping you and your students make full use of the many academic resources available to them.  We encourage you and your students to think of the library as an essential partner in all research endeavors.

  • Direct your students to the library for help with research. Many adult students think we are all about books and are unaware of the many online resources available to them.
  • Include a link to the library in your online courses
  • Invite a librarian to a Blackboard discussion session with your students
  • Direct your students to library tutorials; available online and in PDF formats
  • Library instruction visits can be arranged for many of our Canadian cohorts, contact the Distance Services Librarian for more information.

Getting books from Foley - General Collection books are checked out to faculty for a semester and may be requested online from the library catalog using the “Place Hold” feature. Click here for details on circulation services for faculty and staff.   If you are 35+ miles from campus, we will also mail books to you as we do for our distant students. You would be responsible for return postage (and for returning books on time, right?). 

Your library account - If you are a new adjunct or if it’s been awhile since you last taught for Gonzaga, we may not have an active library account for you.  Without an account, you won’t be able to request books or use Interlibrary Loan.  To activate your account contact Valerie Kitt kitt@gonzaga.edu or use the toll free number 800-498-5941 and ask for Valerie.

Suggest items to add to the Foley Library Collection - The Gonzaga faculty is encouraged to recommend titles for inclusion in the collection. To request that the library consider materials for purchase, you may submit an online form found here.  For additional information on this process, you may review our Collection Development Policies.

Interlibrary Loan (ILL) - ILL services are available to current members of the Gonzaga community through ILLiad. Click here to register for an ILLiad account. If you forget your ILLiad password, you can reset it online or contact the interlibrary loan office for assistance. For more information, review our interlibrary loan FAQ or email the interlibrary loan office ill@gonzaga.edu.

Problems logging in to our databases - If you are a new faculty member or are returning after an absence, you may have difficulty logging into our online databases. Contact the IT Support Center to get or reset your GU username and password.  Contact:  helpdesk@gonzaga.edu / Phone: 509-313-5550
