The use of online tutorials in providing library instruction. In 1994, I was a Co-recipient of a Project SET (Sharing Educational Technology) grant at the University of Tennessee. This grant was used to develop an online EndNote instructional module. This project has led to an interest in the provision of library instruction via the internet and to a poster that was co-presented at the 2005 American Library Association Conference that detailed the steps in transfering a succesful class into an online tutorial.
