Going the Distance: Library Instruction for Remote Users by Susan J. Clayton (editor)

Not only is Going the Distance a highly informative read for distance education librarians, but it could also provide great insight for distance educators in general as far as the library services and modes of outreach possible for their remote library users. Especially informative are the sections of the book which address library services assessment, faculty/librarian collaboration, and models of virtual library instruction. Examples of how other academic libraries implement services to their distance education users are provided as well. The reference listed at the end of each chapter lead to many useful resources.
