Faculty Development Bibliography
Series #16

The following is a bibliography of works on subjects related to all of the topics presented at the Fall Faculty Development Retreat. Though this is not an exhaustive bibliography, it is representative of most of the current materials on the focus topics. Please check the online catalog for additional materials on these subjects. I have included the call number of each book to speed the process of locating materials in the stacks. Web sites related to this year’s workshop topics have also been included when appropriate. Additional World Wide Web resources are included on the Library's Faculty Resources Web Sites page.
