Below are descriptions of the discussions in each of the working groups, as well as a link to their brainstorming notes. These 50 minute sessions allowed school, public and academic librarian participants to talk in small groups about a specific issue and share and compare experiences in teaching information literacy. The many questions and ideas that emerged in each group will be the subject of many future CLOC meetings and workshops.
This group was composed of academic librarians, so they applied ACRL information literacy standards to the specific resources at their institution. Their notes form a basic framework for designing college-level information literacy instruction sessions. Notes.
School and academic and public librarians envisioned an online toolbox of teaching techniques for our local resources that would be continually updated with ideas from user/contributors. The website they create will be linked on this website. Notes.
School and academic librarians found many similarities in their ongoing efforts to get teaching faculty to incorporate the library and research into their curriculum in a meaningful way that will develop information literacy. Notes.
Academic and public librarians brainstormed a few collaborative projects to promote information literacy to teachers, increase librarians understanding of each others' work and broaden our understanding of the different kinds of information literacy needs people have. Notes.
