Welcome to UDLib/Search

As the library media specialist, I have seen an increase in teachers referring students to UDLib/SEARCH for remote learning [during COVID-19]. When at school, it is easier to guide students when researching online. However, when students are home, it is harder to monitor students and guide students to only use websites that we can trust. Pointing students to the resources in UDLib/SEARCH has helped ensure that our students are accessing resources that we know are credible and reliable for our students’ learning.

As a refresher for our students, we have created screencasts showing students how to access and use UDLib/SEARCH for their specific information needs. We have also included the eBooks provided through UDLib/SEARCH in our “DHS Virtual Library” for students to access at their leisure. UDLib/SEARCH has been an invaluable resource to ensure our students are getting quality information during this time, and it would be difficult ensuring our students were accessing quality information without it.
