In the past year, the Thomas Mahaffey Jr. Business Library at the University of Notre Dame provided instruction for a unique course offered by the Mendoza College of Business, Business Problem Solving. Business Problem Solving immerses students in a challenging environment working as teams to resolve a series of cases created by real consulting companies. Teams in each course section compete with each other to see who can produce the most well researched solution for problem posed by the company. For this course, instructors reached out to the library to introduce students to library resources that could augment their case solutions. The structure of the course posed unique challenges to point of need library instruction in the following domains: fluidity of the course curriculum, reliance on external companies for case materials, and the interdisciplinary nature of cases. This talk covers the impact of these challenges as they relate to library instruction in addition to the Mahaffey Business Library’s solutions for providing effective library instruction in such an environment. |
