Abstract

In a general science education course, Herbs, Spices and Medicinal Plants, taught at a research university, librarians and the professor worked to incorporate information literacy (library research skills) tips, resources, assignments and evaluative criteria into the class material. This article details the collaboration process employed between the faculty member and the librarians to enhance the learning process. A specific example of a collaborative effort and a framework for replicating the learning model used are also outlined.
