Short Description

What would a comprehensive information literacy program for first-year students look like? At USC Upstate, the library collaborated with three core first-year courses, the University 101 seminar and the English 101/102 composition sequence, to develop a model in which cross-course cooperation, sequenced library instruction, and student-centered activities, such as an iPod (MP3) tour of the library, play key parts. Presenters will share their experiences and lead participants in discussion on how they might develop and appropriate model for their own institutions.
