Registration is open for the webinar “Information Literacy Instruction in a Post-Liaison World”. It will take place on Tuesday, July 22, at 1:00 PM CDT.
As many libraries face the reality that traditional liaison models to support campus are unsustainable, liaison program re-org projects must grapple with the serious challenges of avoiding burnout, an inability to do more with less, and the shortcomings of instruction models that rely on transactional delivery. In this presentation, we will talk through our approaches and perspectives on filling the liaison void, where we focus on locating pragmatic and effective solutions for ensuring deep and expansive engagement with information literacy instruction across our institutions. While our solutions are locally situated and determined by complex and constantly evolving factors, we will identify where our opportunities and conundrums overlap due to common elements shared across today’s academic libraries.
For information on the presenters, and to register, please go here. This webinar is part of a free information literacy virtual presentation series offered through The Ohio State University Libraries. All are welcome to attend. Participants can use attendance at these presentations to earn the Teaching Information Literacy Certificate being offered by the Libraries’ Teaching & Learning Department.
