Research and Teaching with Government Documents.
The resources available from the Government Information and Maps Department, including U.S. documents, Florida documents, and Map Collections, are versatile and applicable across various classes. Our Government Documents Coordinator and Research and Instruction librarians are eager to collaborate with instructors to integrate these primary resources into their curricula and facilitate class visits. We offer customizable instructional sessions suitable for both undergraduate and graduate levels.
If you seek an instructional session or presentation from either the Documents Coordinator or a Research and Instructional Department Librarian, please submit a request via our Request a Library Instruction Session, Workshop, or Tour form. Kindly provide details such as the class title, size, preferred date, and time of the class meeting. We recommend making your reservation at least two weeks in advance to ensure availability.

He is prepared to collaborate with you, shaping sessions that delve into introductory discussions on government research, exploration of primary resources, the history of the Federal Depository Library Program and Government Documents, and other relevant topics.
Additionally, we offer the option to curate a course guide highlighting library resources and government-specific materials relevant to your course content.
