Methods of coupling adaptors to a target nucleic acid include coupling a first adaptor to a first end of the target nucleic acid to form a coupled first adaptor. A portion of a second adaptor is hybridized to a portion of the coupled first adaptor to form a hybridized second adaptor having a single-stranded 3′-end. The hybridized second adaptor is coupled to a second end of the target nucleic acid to form an adaptor-flanked product having at least a part of the first adaptor coupled to the first end of the target nucleic acid and at least a part of the second adaptor coupled to the second end of the target nucleic acid. These methods can minimize the formation of adaptor-dimers that may be problematic in subsequent complementary nucleic acid strand synthesis, amplification, and sequencing.
