Education Librarian
Welcome
This guide includes:
- links to websites and other online resources that publish lesson plans and curricular materials, many intended for re-use and adaption
- a few (of many!) books in the Trinity library that can help with lesson planning and curriculum development
- information about copyright and fair use for educators
- contact information for Trinity's education librarian; I love questions!
