Abstract
Orientation for distance students often does not equal the ideal teachable moment for learning about library resources and services. Seeking ways to provide learning objects for students to use at the point of need, academic health sciences librarians have created printable guides, Flash video demonstrations and simulations, and interactive tutorials. This electronic poster demonstrates how the learning objects were created, modified, and inserted into various delivery platforms, such as the library’s Web page, course management system, and CD-ROM.

Heather is the Distance Education/Outreach Librarian at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. In addition to coordinating distance services and advocating for the distance student, she provides instruction to both campus and distance students through mandatory new student orientations and online modules.

The University of Nebraska Medical Center has 3,000 students
