Information Literacy for Archives and Special Collections: Defining Outcomes
Carini, Peter
portal: Libraries and the Academy, v16 n1 p191-206 Jan 2016
This article provides the framework for a set of standards and outcomes that would constitute information literacy with primary sources. Based on a working model used at Dartmouth College's Rauner Special Collections Library in Hanover, New Hampshire, these concepts create a framework for teaching with primary source materials intended to produce expert users at the undergraduate level. At the same time, these concepts establish a structure for archivists and librarians to use in assessing their work with faculty and students.
