Teaching & Learning advances the Library’s role in Dartmouth’s educational mission through campus-wide partnerships that foster critical information literacy and lifelong learning. We sustain a culture of continuous learning and innovation within the Library through our comprehensive staff development programming.
Programs and Projects

Librarians Active Learning Institute
Librarians Active Learning Institute
Reinvigorate your teaching in a community of peers!
The Librarians Active Learning Institute (LALI) helps librarians and archivists develop and refine their skills as learner-centered teachers, instructional designers, and collaborators by introducing them to the practice of active learning pedagogy.
We embrace three simple principles of student-centered learning: MEET. ENGAGE. REFLECT.
Meet students where they are
Engage students actively in the process of teaching and learning
Encourage students to reflect upon and to articulate their learning process

Exhibits
Throughout the year, we install new exhibits in Baker-Berry Library. While most exhibits are one-of-a-kind, we enjoy celebrating the Library's student employees with the annual Student Library Service Bookplate Program exhibit. We collaborate with student, faculty, staff, and community members on the exhibit curation process.
Our exhibits designer, Dennis Grady, creates a unique design for every exhibit that helps the curators' best tell their story. We often partner with our colleagues in Rauner Special Collections Library to feature special collections materials and artifacts from the College's history. We also partner with Digital by Dartmouth Library (DxDL) to showcase digital collections and to make our exhibits accessible to viewers far beyond Dartmouth's campus.
