Resources for Teaching about COVID-19
Faculty Recommended COVID-19 Teaching Materials
The COVID-19 pandemic remains “novel”. We learn more about it daily. Colgate faculty members continue to both learn and teach about numerous dimensions of the virus and its effects. Colleagues have expressed an interest in gathering and sharing information resources pertinent to teaching about many aspects of the pandemic. The libraries are responding with means for gathering and sharing relevant, faculty selected information resources for teaching. This information resource guide is the result of those shared efforts.

It tracks 20 measures – 13 public health measures and 7 economic measures – taken by 228 governments.
