Special Libraries and Instruction:

As in any library, bibliographic instruction is a very important service of a special library. However, it is almost never referred to by this name. The sessions can be referred to as individualized orientations (for one person) or a special presentation on services (for a group of managers, scientists, engineers, etc.) These presentations and orientations are opportunities for the savvy special librarian to sell and show off the library, build a support network for the services offered, and acclimate the client to the vast information available in the library, ensuring a client base and continued existence.
