Abstract: Combines theory and practice of library user training into a framework for teaching information skills in school libraries. The main focus is on in secondary schools (ages 11-18) but teachers and librarians in upper primary and secondary schools and in further education colleges can bebefit from the work. The PLUS model proposed covers: purpose; location; use; and self evaluation. The intention is not to suggest that the PLUS model is radically different from other but to provide an integrated framework to be used both by pupils and those who support them

Abstract

Academic librarians have a long and rich tradition of collaborating with discipline-based faculty members to advance the mission and goals of the library. Included in this tradition is the area of information literacy, a foundation skill for academic success and a key component of independent, lifelong learning. With the rise of the general education reform movement on many campuses resurfacing in the last decade, libraries have been able to move beyond course-integrated library instruction into a formal planning role for general education programmatic offerings. This article shows the value of 1. strategic alliances, developed over time, to establish information literacy as a foundation for student learning; 2. strong partnerships within a multicampus higher education system to promote and advance information literacy efforts; and 3. assessment as a key component of outcomes-based information literacy activities.

Abstract

More than 5000 publications related to library user instruction and information literacy have been published and reviewed in the past thirty years. New developments in education and technology during the last two decades have affected user instruction and have led to the emergence of information literacy. Based on needs related to the rapid development of information technology and the evolving information society, librarians have begun teaching information skills to all types of users to ensure that they gain information fluency so they can become productive and effective information users both in the education environment and in the work environment. The number of publications related to user instruction and information literacy, like the field itself, show phenomenal growth during the past three decades as demonstrated by the fact that in 1973 twenty-eight publications were reviewed, and in 2002 more than 300 publications dealing with the topic of information literacy will be issued. It is noteworthy that in the last decade there has been a tremendous growth in publications related to information literacy globally. During the 1970s, publications indicate that user instruction activities were of concern primarily to librarians in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand. At the present time, publications indicate a major concern with information literacy not only in the countries mentioned above but also in China, Germany, Mexico, Scandinavia, Singapore, South Africa, South America, Spain, and others. On an annual hasis, the majority of the publications have addressed information literacy in academic libraries (60 percent) followed by publications related to information literacy instruction in school media centers (20 percent).

Abstract

This book, aimed at an international audience, provides an overview of information literacy (IL) in practice; what it is, why it's become so important in the library profession and demonstrates how librarians can cultivate a better understanding of IL in their own organisations. It uses the 'Cookbook' theme throughout to provide a more informal approach, which will appeal to practitioners, and also reflects the need to provide guidance in the form of recipes, tips for success, regional variations, and possible substitutions if ingredients aren't available. This approach makes it easy to read and highly valuable for the busy information professional. It includes an overview of information literacy in higher education, the schools sector, public libraries, the health service and the commercial sector. It also includes contributions from international authors. Key Features: 1. Highly readable for busy information professionals 2. Contains advice, case studies and examples of good practice particularly useful for practitioners 3. Relevant to librarians from all sectors 4.Suitable for an international audience The Editors: Dr Jane Secker is Learning Technology Librarian at the Centre for Learning Technology, based at the London School of Economics.

Abstract

The virtual university environment provides librarians with new opportunities to contribute to the educational process. Building on the success of team-teaching a traditional liberal arts core course with composition and communications faculty, librarians and a communications professor worked together to integrate the Association of College & Research Libraries (ACRL) Information Literacy Competency Standards for Higher Education (2000) into the online environment. The resulting graduate-level course in multimedia literacy assembled faculty and curriculum resources normally untapped in traditional classrooms. All five information literacy standards covering need, access, evaluation, use and the social, economic, legal, and ethical issues surrounding information use were addressed. Readings and threaded discussions about intellectual property, fair use of copyrighted materials, the evaluation of free and fee-based Web information and Web page design and construction prepared students to work in groups to design and construct Web sites. Students also completed a capstone project in the form of individual Web portfolios, which demonstrated the information and multimedia principles they learned in the class. Assessment of information literacy skills occurred through the analysis of student discussion, evaluative annotations, Web site assignments, perception surveys, and a master's level comprehensive exam question. What was learned in this course will serve as a model for future collaborative partnerships in which faculty and librarians work together to ensure that students who learn from a distance truly master information literacy competencies.

Footnote

The authors also do a good job of explaining the process of complex model building, making the text a useful resource for dissertation writers. The next two chapters focus an the results of the study. Chapter 5 presents the study findings and introduces four different models of the reference process, derived from the study results. Chapter 6 adds analysis to the discussion of the results. Unfortunately, the "Implications for Practice," "Implications for Research," and "Implications for Education" sections are disappointingly brief-only a few paragraphs each-limiting the utility of the volume to practitioners. Finally, Chapter 7 considers the applicability of systems analysis in modeling the reference process. It also includes a series of data flow diagrams that depict the reference process as an alternative to flowchart depiction. Throughout the book, the authors claim that their study is more complete than any to come before it since previous studies tended to focus an ready reference questions, rather than full-blown reference queries and directional queries, and since previous studies generally excluded telephone reference. They also challenge the long-standing "55% Rule," asserting that "Library users indicate high satisfaction even when they do not find what they want or are not given accurate information" (Saxton & Richardson, 2002, p. 95). Overall, Saxton and Richardson found the major variables that had a statistically significant effect an the outcome measures to be: (1) the extent to which the librarian followed the RUSA Behavioral Guidelines; (2) the difficulty of the query; (3) the user's education level, (4) the user's familiarity with the library; and (5) the level of reference service provided. None of the other variables that were considered, most notably the librarian's experience, the librarian's education level, and the size of the collection, had a statistically significant effect an the outcome measures.
