The IRC Team promotes the ethical use of information and library materials and encourages questions and suggestions in using our print and digital collections. As access to information expands, so too does the need for tools and guidance in choosing appropriate resources, searching a variety of formats, and evaluating content. The IRC is committed to developing these information and research skills on an individual and group basis.
