National Taiwan University (NTU) has been chosen by the Ministry of Education (MOE) to be one of the Key Cultivation Schools for the “Program on Bilingual Education for Students in College (BEST)” hence the NTU Library provides related support services for the implementation of the English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) education.
Subject librarians can assist professors in teaching and provide information literacy courses on topics such as library resources and the Zotero software. Also, librarians can customize classes or presentations to cover a wide variety of topics to meet the needs of a group, department, or class.
NTU faculty can apply at least one month in advance, and subject librarians will assist in teaching EMI courses!
Subject librarians will give a brief overview of library services, facilities, and resources and let students know how to make better use of the NTU library for their study and research.
Zotero is an open-source software featuring browser integration for easy reference collection and citation management.
This course covers Zotero’s core functions, including application setup, browser-based reference collection, reference organization, and inserting and editing citations in Microsoft Word. Students are encouraged to bring their laptops (Windows or macOS) for hands-on practice during the session.
