\nSaturday, June 23, 10:30-11:30 AM
\nMorial Convention Center, Rm 218-219
\nAccreditation is an issue that affects all librarians at all higher education institutions, whether or not the librarian is a direct participant in their institution’s accreditation process. This discussion forum will address the issue of accreditation from a variety of different perspectives. Following a brief presentation on the instances of information literacy in the different accreditation bodies, participants will engage in a variety of group activities on the topic of accreditation and the library’s participation or lack of it. Attendees of this workshop could have no, little, or extensive experience with accreditation.<\/p>\n
