Library Exercises
Two library exercises -- one for general use and one for business students -- let you test yourself in the use of several key online library resources. Some instructors assign or give extra credit for completion of the exercise. If the exercise has been assigned by your instructor, find out if you should return the completed exercise to the instructor or to the library. If the exercise has not been assigned, email (library@rrcc.edu) or fax (303.914.6741) the exercise to the library when completed or print it out and leave it at the circulation desk if you want the library to review your answers. Remember to put your name and (if you expect credit for the exercise) your class and instructor's name on the completed exercise.
