The Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) located in western New York, strives to deliver the same quality library services to its students and faculty located across the globe as those living in the Rochester area. In addition to an array of distance courses and online programs, RIT also has international campuses located in Kosovo, Croatia, and Dubai. Students at these campuses have access to the wealth of resources maintained by the RIT Library but are often unfamiliar with what is available and how to use those resources. Teaching and supporting students in the use of the available resources is a challenge considering distances and time zones, but also overcoming differences in culture can be an additional contributing factor impeding usage. Utilizing a blend of technology tools to provide real-time instruction; annual in-person librarian visits to the campuses; virtual library office hours; Web-based tutorials; subject and course level library guides; multiple forms of communication; and library integration within courseware; all work together to reduce barriers and strengthen relationships, better serving RITs international campus populations for students and faculty alike.
