Library Instruction and Information Literacy

Library Instruction

Library instruction is appropriate in any course that requires the use of library resources, including research databases, in order to complete class assignments. Library instruction has generally been covered in University 101. While the nature of these sessions gives students an introduction to the research process, research skills, and library resources, they do not generally provide advanced research skills or information on specialized databases.

Embedded Librarianship

An embedded librarian will work with individual faculty who are teaching research based courses. The instructor and librarian will work as a team to facilitate the development of information literacy skills in students. This will be accomplished through a series of hands-on activities and research assignments. Due to to intensive nature of embedded librarianship, this service is available on a limited basis.

The Embedded Lite program is a modified version, with a librarian meeting up to three times with a class to provide specialized instruction based on research intensive assignments.
