Providing Information Literacy Instruction to Graduate Students through Literature Review Workshops
Rempel, Hannah Gascho; Davidson, Jeanne
Issues in Science and Technology Librarianship, n53 Win 2008
As future professionals, graduate students must be information literate; however, information literacy instruction of graduate students is often neglected. To address this need, we created literature review workshops to serve graduate students from a wide range of subject disciplines at a point of shared need. Not only did this strategy prove to be successful in reaching a large number of students from a wide range of subject disciplines, the data gathered from the students identified some of the gaps graduate students have in their knowledge about library services.
