Are you a faculty member who
• finds your students’ research projects disappointing?
• is puzzled by students’ lack of information literacy, despite their savvy with technology?
• wants a better way to introduce students to library resources than the old-fashioned “factoid” scavenger hunt?

Librarians not only know what resources are out there, but also the types of resources students like. They can help instructors effectively weave information literacy into engaging everyday classroom activities. Who better for faculty to collaborate with?

Faculty members can rely on librarians to help reinvigorate research assignments, and also meet the requirements of accreditation bodies, which are increasingly insisting that students have information literary skills before they graduate.
