The article proposes the use of a domain of electronic document retrieval classroom teaching models and examination mode of the literature retrieval class using electronic classroom, basing on current situation and existing examination mode for Shenyang Aerospace University literature retrieval class. It introduces the teaching process, characteristics, advantages and the teaching reform of the examination mode. Ministry of Education issued "Library Regulation of Chinese University" in 1981. It is the first time that the course of literature retrieval has been assigned as one of the task of university library. Since then, Ministry of Education and Former N ational Education Committee have released three guidance documents, "Comments on offering the course of literature retrieval and application in university" in 1984, "Several comments on the improvement and development of teaching literature retrieval" in 1985 and "Basic requirements" in 1992 respectively. Our university has offered the course of literature retrieval for nearly a decade. The name of the course has changed from literature retrieval to technical information retrieval. In such a networked and informative era, network has become the major media. Several issues have been revealed in the traditional way of teaching under the information resource digitalization and information system virtualization, such as lecturers' group, course setting and assessment. Therefore, university library has reformed the way of teaching and assessment of the course "technical information retrieval"(1).
