Abstract

As academic librarians, we spend a considerable amount of time and energy building information literacy skills with our students without much meaningful investigation into the work that has come before. Have we been ignoring some of our most impactful collaborators: those who spend years preparing students for college-level research and developing crucial skills such as comprehension and critical thinking? This webinar will highlight how a mid-size land-grant university combined several assessment methodologies (student surveys, surveys of secondary educators, and interviews with local educators) to assess the information literacy instruction that is occurring at our local high schools, as well as illustrate how we began a dialogue with our local secondary educators.
