Is your library incorporating the Framework for Information Literacy into your First Year programs in innovative ways?
The ACRL Instruction Section Best Practices Committee (http://www.ala.org/acrl/is/acr-insilbest) wants to hear from you!
The committee would like to showcase how different institutions (e.g., community colleges, four-year colleges or universities, etc.) engage with first-year students. In particular, we are interested in integrated or distributed approaches to information literacy instruction. These approaches typically offer non-credit bearing experiences (e.g. course-related instruction, badges, co-curricular activities, etc.) that intentionally develop research skills by engaging faculty as partners to blend concepts into a college or university curriculum.
If you’d like to showcase your program, please e-mail me a brief description of it, at jmb7609@psu.edu. A member of the Committee will follow up with you in early 2019.
Thanks so much for your time and consideration. We look forward to hearing from you!
