Information literacy can go far beyond the bounds of the traditional classroom or curriculum. Using a statewide literacy initiative as a foundation, academic librarians create in-demand workshops to help students develop skills that improve financial literacy, civic participation, and more. In this session, we will discuss how to leverage campus and professional resources into engagement success, assess outcomes through multiple lenses, and build a team that strengthens library connections with students through focused life skill development.
Participants will:
- Discuss lifelong literacies that engage students with the academic library in new ways;
- List potential partners, programs, and resources that can enhance student engagement with library programming; and
- Consider methods of discipline-specific evaluation for assessing student learning
